Vicki, Love your pastels and also your d9p. I've been trying to figure out the pattern. You must have done two nine patches in different colors??? I've not seen that one before.

Vicki,
Thanks so much for the website, especially since I wouldn't have figured it out. I think this is a great pattern to use like you did to focus a fabric. I have been collecting some bird fabrics that I'm going to try with this pattern.

Sort of like when we were kids and asked for "more" and Mom would say, "Finish what you have first!" ;o) Anybody with me on this? Jan
OK, It worked for me! Here is the black and gray topper I finished today. One of the pix shows the topper and one shows the quilting and how the triangles now stand up 3-D. I think I already posted the pix of the patriotic version, and its all done too. Have not finished my Church Ladies set of blocks yet, but I just might get them done and posted before the next train leaves the station. But my goal was the black and gray one that is my actual mystery quilt, and its done! YAY

That black and gray looks so effective. A lovely finish.
