Disappearing Nine Patch Quilt for Adrian
These photos are from May (yes, I am so behind - let's call it a trend), and I actually sewed the binding on well before Adrian was born. Hurray for small accomplishments! I'll have better photos of the whole (and finished) quilt at some later date, life has just been too different, busy, and tiring lately to stop in here much. I have put all knitting aside for the next few months, or years, but organized the works-in-progress so I can pick right back up at any time without wondering what on earth I was doing with it or where I was at in the pattern.
In case I hadn't mentioned it, the quilt pattern was from a Better Homes and Gardens quilting leaflet, and while it's a variation on the disappearing nine patch block, it was not sewn or cut like one. I pieced the rows separately (no nine patch blocks to cut) because I wanted the most variety of fabrics - there are somewhere between 68 and 100 different kinds of fabric in there, mostly from my late mother in law's stash and maybe 20 or so from my own. The quilt top is hand pieced, the quilting also by hand but I put the binding on the top with the machine.
