Cadence Court

This was a block-of-the-month program that I participated in 2018-2019.  It's 60 x 60.  I love all the bright colors and the intricate piecing.  Paper piecing really can create some spectacular patterns.  I used white thread throughout for quilting.  I won a second place ribbon in our 2020 show.  Ribbon is shown at the end.



 







I continued the diamond pattern into the quilting, and used several designs for the filler in the background.






I added an additional square to fill the corner, including the diamond in the center.




I did a stitch-in-the-ditch with invisible thread in the large pieced diamonds, crosshatching in the white areas, and several different shapes in the remaining areas.













I did a lot of ruler work in the center:






I used this bright, colorful fabric for backing and binding:









The ribbon committee did a fabulous job this year.
