Just finished this one last night. The inspiration was a photo in a book about the No. Indiana Amish. It was a double diamond crib quilt in red and black and cream.
Hope you like it!

It is 8.25 in. by 11.5 in.

This is the back, showing the 'freaky fast finish' triangles that AAQI prefers, for hanging the quilt

Most of mine don't really have an up or a down, so it's just where I put the corners.
Glad you like it!

Gorgeous! The Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative (AAQI) is asking for more quilts so they can take 1,500 to Houston. You can find out more info here: http://www.alzquilts.org/paq.html It's a wonderful organization.

In the photo, I can see that the center squares could be more diamond shaped -- should have started with a clear diamond shape instead of a square. I can try that next! But first, must finish my DQ for the Sept. swap. It is turning out well, I think.
