Horses and Diamonds

Quilt Top
 
 
Apprx. 57 x 46 inches.

 
This particular type quilt top was a first for me.

 
The most time - consuming part, of course, was the border.

 
Doing the Quarter - Square - Triangles was a task.

 
Though I've done Quarter - Square - Triangles before; I had no idea if the size I'd created would
fit evenly around the border. Luckily, I only had to do minimal adjustments for a proper fit.
