Diamond-in-the-Square is an old favorite setting of mine, and I go to it often with my favorite blocks. This block has been a delightful surprise---starting with a traditional design, picking a neutral palette, and adding a new element---but I think I will stop now. I need a new bag (yeah, right) to go with my gray outfits this winter. This design has a "city" look, almost architectural, and I will use it to tote my stuff in style.
