Beautiful furr-baby and quilt!! :D :D

I have made several, all scrappy, and some with charm square packs from Moda - Lots of colour but not necessarily a distinct pattern. They are a great way to use those 5 inch squares.

I just finished this twin size D9P for Christmas. I used 3 different types of Christmas fabrics. I quilted snowflakes in the center with a penguin border

BEAUTIFUL quilts, ladies (and gents??)!!!

What is a D9p?

I am going to brag on you and date myself at the same time. That's so TUFF!
Translation: Da Balm!
Lady like: Your work is stunning and the recipient will be so pleased.

I have made two big quilts and one crib size. they were posted on this site. one is in the picture gallery.

I'm glad you posted this. I have not made a D9P (but would like to soon), and have wondered also about the colors. I am bookmarking this thread! Thanks!

I made this one using 3 fabrics. It was for a friend going through chemo & is one of my favorites. My friend is now cancer free!

A disappearing 9 patch. All the quilts you see here are examples of a d9p. Here is a tutorial. They're VERY easy and simple to do.

I used a pink center and scraps. I like it anyway; planned or scraps, it is one of my favorite patterns. No matter what colors you use it will be lovely.

Not sure, it doesn't say in her post. But I'm sure she would tell you if you asked her. :)

Thanks so much ..... Beautiful quilts :thumbup:

I love looking at how all of us have taken a simple pattern and made it our own. Here are two that I made for Project Linus.

I am making one at home using scraps ( but they how can I say it) not the usual scrap quilt, I guess. I'm using muted blues and greens in center square. Then for the remaining squares I have mauve pinks, peaches with alternating white/off white squares. And because there is more color I an attaching them together with narrow strips of off white sashings.
My church group is a little different. Still using scraps, we have the same black print center square, blues, mauve pinks, peaches, greens alternating with off white squares. Will not be using sashing on this one. This one looks good without.
Good Luck.
If still unsure, make samples or at least lay fabric out to see how they look.

All these are so nice. I need to get one done.

Sorry we are naughty assuming that everyone knows :oops: D9P means Disappearing 9 Patch, here is the link for a tutorial, as a way of an apology.

The only one I have made is my avatar. I love it and it was such fun to make!

beautiful quilts

Did not see a single one I did not like. I love scrappy quilts and hope to make one of these in the near future..

These are so much fun becasue you can do a LOT of variations that look complex but are actaully pretty simple. Here's a baby quilt I did in blues and I am finishing a larger one where I spun the blocks.

I love your cat quilts. Who could be more worthy of their own quilt than a faithful and loving cat?

Thanks to all of you for posting the D9P pictures, I liked all of them :thumbup:

Here are two that I did using 3 colour ways ..they are fun to do!!

Love both of your quilts!!!

I love D9Ps too. Here are a few I have done.
The whirlygigs was done with all scraps of musical fabrics and some other scraps to finish it out.
Butterflies and flowers floating around the pink and purple theme.
In the last one I used only blue and yellow but used 3 or 4 shades of each.

WOW!!!! Very unique! Love it!

Not sure how to add a picture when I'm replying to a topic, so here is the link for one I did for my son a couple of years ago for their 5th anniversary, (divorce is to be final this Friday). I did it with charm packs. It's the third one down. This was one of the first quilts I did, and of all things I do a king size.

Your quilt is wonderful, I really love the colors you used.

Thanks. Lots and lots of charm packs. LOL

Can't wait to see the finished quilt! This one is a real stunner.

I'm SO RELIEVED! I have made several small quilts for our cat too - I really thought I was the only person in the world who would do that. :)

For the quilt question - I'm planning on doing one of these too for a granddaughter. I've been playing around with it. I think I may use 2 "prints" (prints are little girl types of fabrics) and then use purple, green and pink for the other patches (including the ones that will be cut). When I construct my first patch I'll pic it for you.

I'm glad you asked this question!!!

Thank you quiltingaddict....

Here is a link to all D9P on the board. Go nuts! :thumbup:

This is my D9P, 3 basic colors, but more prints, as you can tell...

Someone on the board had an avatar with only two colors Turquoise and White that looked very stunning. I just finished a small one and it was a lot of fun to see it come together. There are SO MANY ways of laying out your blocks.... GOOD LUCK in making that decision!!!

Here is a baby quilt I made recently with five colors. My first D9p. It was fun!

Here's a couple I did a couple of years ago. They are both three color, and it really makes a difference where you put your darks and lights.

Oh my, your quilt is gorgeous!!! Love the colors!

These are beautiful D9P! I attempted one recently, but was not pleased with the early results (too busy for my taste). I've recently made some of the blocks into many house blocks, 15 so far.

Good luck. It's a relatively easier block to complete.
