I recently finished my Disappearing Nine Patch quilt top (using this tutorial, compliments of sew,mama,sew! quilting month: http://quiltsatcs.blogspot.com/2007/04/disappearing-9-patch-tutorial.html), and have been waiting for an opportunity to get starting quilting all the layers together. Luckily, we are getting a steady flow of snow flurries this afternoon. My plan: hot tea and quilting!
The fabrics were purchased from hancock fabrics, and they came together as a bundle of fat quarters. I had enough fabric to make 20 nine-patch blocks. After they were all finished, I started slicing and dicing! I think the quilt has come together nicely. I’m using a forest green fabric for the backing, with a strip of the patterned fabrics I used on the front. The quilt top turned out quite small, only about 36″ by 44″. All that slicing and resewing really shrunk the blocks!
