Red Diamonds

21 10 2010

This quilt features numerous patterns in reds and creams.  Based on dissected rectangles, alternating red and cream rows  create this very  bold piece.  The wide border in a floral pattern using the colors of the diamonds gives it a strong frame.  I was fortunate in finding a backing fabric with the same color range as the border, in a luscious paisley pattern.

Very pretty. Though I do believe that back-side pattern is called paisley. Fleur-de-lis is more like a symmetrical bundle of something, as seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleur-de-lis
