One of my first practice quilts! I have a Pfaff 18.8 on an Imperial frame that I'm still playing with. I am pretty happy with this one - wohoo!

This is a disappearing nine-patch with some fat quarters from Joanne's on sale, along with some Fabricland fabric (the rusty orange for the) that looks like 'fusions'.

I also have some new rulers from Gadget Girls that I am playing with - the ribbon in the border, the spine for the border feather and the orange peel border section are all done with rulers. The corner feathers are from my QBot, the design is from Digi-Tech, Betty's Feathers V Feather - each corner rotated.

The rows of D9P blocks each had a different freehand design - the outer rows have seaweed-ferny type designs, the inner ones have spiky feathery and echoing spiky things.

Learned LOTS on this quilt!

This quilt is heading to my brother, who is nicely recovering from his heart bypass surgery and next has to deal with colon cancer - it will be his to hold him tight through his recovery.
