A Brilliant Cut Blog Hop & Giveaway

 

 Welcome to the Fat Quarter Shop Brilliant Cut Blog Hop!

 

 

 

 

What is A Brilliant Cut?

 

Well...., 

 

It is this beauty. 

 

 

 

As some would say,  a girl's best friend.

There example was done in beautiful  

Moda's Sew Solids blue. 

So rich and gorgeous.

 

I chose a slightly different color scheme.

 

 

 I wasn't quite sure what I had planned for

this mini until I put pieced together

the block.

It was a cinch. 



 

The Creative Grids 9 1/2" Perfect Rectangle Ruler

 

 

Made piecing the diamond perfection.

I can see using this tool in many other projects

 

 

 

After piecing the diamond,

I fondly recalled a lullaby that

I would sing my babies.

I am sure most of

you can figure out the song.

 

A Mocking Bird

A Looking Glass

 

 



 

and of course the Billy Goat

or as my husband says "The Old Goat".

 

 

 

It is my Hush Little Baby quilt

with a Brilliant Cut Diamond Ring block

from the Fat Quarter Shop.

The shine for the berry, diamond, mirror and glasses was added by using

iCraft® DECO FOIL™  which you can find here.
