Beautiful quilt! I had to laugh that the fabric flung itself at you. A new danger to watch out for!
Right, watch out for flying bolts! Not to mention the nuts! Lovely quilt. Not what I was expecting.

Love the diamond fabric.
Wow - what can we do in the face of unruly fabric?? I would have brought it home too - if only to teach it some manners. I love the quilt top you made, it's just adorable.
How fun to see that the paisley fabric is making its way into your projects - I'd never have thought it was 'DJ worthy', but doesn't it look wonderful!
*hugs*

Did you get hurt from the fabric ???
Looking forward to seeing how you will quilt it.
Love that diamond quilt!!!! AWESOME!!

I like the way you centered the diamond shape on the fabric design. It made a beautiful quilt. And I very much understand how those bolts of fabric jump off the shelves.
