Diamonds and Berries

My little Civil war quilt is just about ready to send off to its recipient. I sure hope she likes it. 
Don't tell, but it's bigger than it's suppose to be.  I'm hoping I don't get kicked out of Lori's club for not following the rules!
Did you notice the diamond border?  (How could you not!) They are stuck in my head! Those Soupçon quilts are becoming even more addictive. They spilled over into another quilt. But I think it looks good and it makes a nice frame around those berries. 
My plan today is to finish the quilting, bind it with that same indigo and ship it off. I'm off and running!

Take care, Brandie

Well, if the one I receive is half as nice as this one I'll be thrilled. I now "she" will LOVE it and she won't mind the bigger size. You knocked this out of the ball park and she is so deserving of this beautiful piece.
