Here's the deal, you make 1 nine patch block any size each day using fabrics from your stash....
I thought we could start ours June 15th and run thru August 15th so no one has to catch up. You can do them anyway you want 1 a day, the week's worth in a day, whatever you want, it's a no pressure thing the goal is to have 1 for each calendar day.
Ok, so who wants to play?
I'm in. I've been sewing 9patch blocks from stash and from a FQ packet of Kaffe Fassett fabrics that were gifted to me. I have 22 finished so far.
I got bored the other day, so I bought the stripes for the alternate blocks and started sewing some snowball blocks to go with the 9patch blocks. And then I sewed them into rows.
I decided to switch them up on every row-- one row they are horizontal stripes and one row vertical. The idea was to make the 9patches look like they are exploding. BAM! Happy 4th of July. It's not red white and blue but it's still fireworks.
