Description:
Having just come back from Baton Rouge, Carol was really hung up on the colors that she saw in the area, the purples, yellow, pinks, and more, and decided to use those as the basis of the color palette for this quilt. The name Diamond Delight comes from the fact that there is a whole block in the center and portions of a block around the outside that, when viewed together, form a diamond shape.
