Do you remember Diva?
Designed in EQ8, Diva was published in Make Modern Issue 58. Now, she is available as a standalone pattern in my Etsy Shop.
I made Diva using the Vintage Charm collection, combined with Island Batik Solids in Red, Orange, Yellow and Fuchsia. The focus fabric strip sets were scraps leftover from making Kashvi, but there is nothing scrappy about Diva!
Finishing at 51" by 68" she glides in royal splendor. And although you may think that she is set in her ways, she is very adaptable. I encourage you to take a look at the various color options.
I quilted with my trusted walking foot using my favorite squiggly stitch. The binding is Island Batik Solid Fuchsia.
Some of you are likely to believe that she may be extravagant and she does look resplendent in those rich colors. But the truth is that Diva is very affordable. The pattern is $10 and is available at a 25% discount till September 3, 2024. If you act quickly she can be yours for under $8!!!
In fact, Diva is so persuasive that all patterns in my Etsy Store are 25% off on account of Labor Day Sale. But wait there is more. Two lucky winners can get Diva Quilt Pattern for free. Just leave me a comment on this blogpost, making sure that I have a way to reach you. I will pick the winners next week.
Update - The two winners are Comments #8 and #19. Emails have been sent.

ReplyDeleteDiva looks like a fun quilt to sew. Once again you've got a winner, Preeti!
ReplyDeleteDiva is a great pattern, and I love all of that negative space between the grid structure. This would be a nice, quick quilt top to put together for custom quilting practice, too.
ReplyDeleteDiva is gorgeous, Preeti! I love the colors you made her in, but I could see this in cool blues and greens, too. Thanks for the giveaway! diannbottrell@gmail.com

Diva looks like a fun scrappy quilt!!! It glows!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are amazing. Wanted to say your photo of Blush with the snazzy hat is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI love your color choices on your Diva quilt. One question as a Janome user also, why are you using the regular presser foot when finishing attaching your binding to the front of your quilt? Is there a reason you aren’t using a walking foot? Just curious as your bindings always look so perfect. I use the walking foot for this step and have trouble at the corners that I think are due to the bulkiness of the foot. I’ve watched your pattern development over the years and love all of them and the stories that goes with them!
ReplyDeleteThanks for offering your latest pattern at a special introductory price. She's a beauty!
ReplyDeleteLovely colours!
ReplyDeleteThe colors just glow! It's fun to make the solids the main blocks and the the prints be the sashing. Usually, the designs work it the other way.
ReplyDeleteDiva is beautiful! Can’t wait to see Geometric Symphony.
ReplyDeleteLove your Diva quilt, especially love the color choices. It is happy and fun!! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteDiva carries herself well with all those glorious colors! I can always count on you to brighten my day with pops of color! Another great design, Preeti!
ReplyDeleteThat is one awesome Diva. I especially like the way your dark corners come together but don't match up exactly. It's a good look. I love it.
ReplyDeleteAs a fairly new subscriber, I look forward to every new quilt and love your bright color choices! I wish I knew how you do it. I especially love this one! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI love the bright, bold colors.
