Assemble Baby Quilt Pattern With Diamonds

You will follow the picture of the quilt to assemble your baby quilt pattern with diamonds. You will want to do each row and add a pink sashing. Create all four of your rows before putting it all together.

One thing I found making this quilt is my particular fabric shifted and I needed to straighten up my pieces before attaching each row.

Attach the Border

Taking your purple fabric attach your borders making sure that you start at the top of each section. You should have four borders when you have completed this. If you have excess fabric on the back from attaching the two pieces, go ahead and trim that close to the seam.

Finishing Your Quilt

You get to decide how to finish your quilt. You can attach your batting and your backing and simply do a binding or you can do a no binding quilt. Here is a tutorial on how to do that.

Finally, you want to finish your quilt either with free motion quilting or on your long arm. I found it easier to finish on my machine as it’s a really small quilt. Congrats, you have finished your baby quilt pattern with diamonds.
