I 'm not familar with the design
|
Well...it looks like a combo of a 9 patch and a snow-ball. It is cute!
|
Snowball block with 9 patch in between them is what it looks like to me

looks like too many 'Y' intersections for my tastes {giggle}
|
Whatever it is, its pretty! I do see the nine patches and I think the other is the snowball. Mixed the way they are, it looks awesome.
|
What a lovely quilt!
Do you know anything about it's story? ... when you look at the way the seams are puffed ... it almost looks like the large colours and background are put together in a simple block form. And then the 9Ps added after, looking as though they are appliqued on. And agreed ... snowballs with 9Ps would do the job with all set on point. |

It's not a regular snowball with the 9Ps added.

I agree, snowball and 9 patch. The design comes from the placement of fabrics. Very pretty.:)

Agree, snow ball and 9 patch.
|
it looks like it was set on point. or at least the blocks are going across the quilt in the photo. i agree, nine patches and snow ball blocks (corner triangles match the light background in the nine patch blocks. then some "petals" are appliqued on the quilt.
|
plus add the applique around the outside

Funny, I read this thread, went to draw it up, and when I got back a couple minutes later - there was the answer already! But, anywhere here is the drawing.
thanks for the drawing... |

That is an awesome table runner. gammatyr did an unique job of drawing it out.
|
I believe it is a snowball/9 patch and the reason you don't recognize it is that it appears in the picture to be on point. Cock your head around a little and I think you will see it

9 patch and snowballs - the cream is the "snowball" corners and the "X" part of the 9-patch.

I agree with the others, 9 patch and snowballs. What I really like is the chicken dish, I collect chicken dishes like that and also chicken candy dishes.
|
It's a thicker batting than we are accustomed to seeing and not well pressed before quilting. It may be hand quilted and there seems to be buttons in the center where the blocks come together. I have a SB and 9P waiting for binding for a prayer quilt and another on the machine being quilted. That one does look different photographed from an angle.
|
Well thanks so much quiltnan and grammatjr for those. I was just yesterday thinking about this pattern and wondering about color placements , and i think this post by rebbeca helped me visualize better. isnt this pattern just so different depending on how you place light and dark. I had done a googgle search and most of the quilts with this pattern use a light for the snowball. My plan was to use a dark like this, and now I am more confident my plan would work!

Comes from this book. http://www.amazon.com/Simple-Charm-P.../dp/1604680660
|
If you look right behind the chicken bowl, by the red leaf, you can see the nine patch and snow ball more distinctly. The quilt is beautiful.
|
Don't know the design but I sure like it.
|
To me it looks like a square in a square, and a 9 patch set on the diagonal. It looks more complicated than it is because of the way the cream color is used. It would actually be fairly easy to make. I love how it looks. It may be a way to use up a lot of scraps.
|
This is a really adorable pattern. Especially cute as a scrappy.

Nancy is your drawing from a computer program?

Beautiful! I love it! I saw it on another thread here a few days ago, or one that is similar.
|
Just a snowball and 9 patch with applique vines and leaves in border. Beautiful little quilt.
|
Perfect for those left over scrapes!
|
Well I'm liking it and I'll join your "too dumb" club too Rebecca! :p Good thing we can turn to the experts here on the QB! As soon as I saw your great diagrams Nan, Gramma and Suzan I thought, now why couldn't i see that?!

It is an easy quilt to put together since the nine patch can be stripe pieced. I used it, larger block of course, to make a couple of baby quilts for gifts.
|
Yes have seen the ninepatches and snowballs several times.. Love the effect..especailly in scrappy..
