I worked on that over the weekend. I now have about 158 diamonds, which I intend to sash with something and then resew together.<\/p>\n<p>I also was able to use my <a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2010\/02\/odds-and-ends\/\" target=\"_blank\">diamond ruler<\/a> again. I got good use out of it for <a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2011\/07\/foty-2010-again\/\" target=\"_blank\">FOTY 2010<\/a>, but since then it has been languishing.<\/p>\n<p>Now that all of the diamonds are cut, my next task is to figure out a sashing color. I want something that will be different enough so that the diamonds don&#8217;t bleed into the sashing.\u00a0 I want them to be distinct.<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t be able to achieve that goal completely, but I was thinking white and the portable design wall does a good job showing how that will look. I did a FB poll on my page and on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/artquiltmaker\" target=\"_blank\">Artquiltmaker.com FB page<\/a>(are you a member??) and on Twitter. So far, people like the white, but chocolate and black have also been suggested. Not sure I have enough of a chocolate fabric to sew the whole piece together, but I definitely have enough for a test. I also have a nice piece of black from the Pure Elements line that I can try.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12410\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12410\" style=\"width: 284px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/JellyRollDiamonds-2sm1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12410\" title=\"Stack of Jelly Roll Diamonds\" src=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/JellyRollDiamonds-2sm1-284x300.jpg\" alt=\"Stack of Jelly Roll Diamonds\" width=\"284\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/JellyRollDiamonds-2sm1-284x300.jpg 284w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/JellyRollDiamonds-2sm1.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 284px) 85vw, 284px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12410\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stack of Jelly Roll Diamonds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the piece that I started with.
