All of you have been so amazingly complimentary. Daughter and I had some starts and stops with color choices and I wound up making 480 nine patches. Generally I make 20 to 30 comfort quilts a year (flip n sew/QAYG so I have a lot of comfort quilts to make with the leftovers. For those that have never made a Bloomin Nine Patch, it is a very fun quilt to make.
