Made fabric selection. First quilt. 9 patch. Material reminds me of Mom
 

Went to Whittle's today with DW. Spent $24.65 (thank you honey for your gift) on three fabrics I, in my newness think will complement each other. Looking through the fabrics, I was drawn to those that reminded me of Mama and Daddy when I was young, back in the early 1960's. Green for border and sashes. The fine flower pattern has just a touch of green which I think will be brought out by the sash, and the larger flowers have a little green and a buff background I think will go nicely. The purple flowers are there because.....because..... heck. Just 'cause I like em. And It's my quilt.

WooHoo!! I'm ready to roll tomorrow. Don

Sounds wonderful!!! We would love to see a photo when you've finished it...

Make sure you share a picture of your quilt when you finish it. Better yet, share pictures as you begin it. Sounds like fun.

Nothing like a fired up quilter!!! can't wait to see photos.

Yee Haw sounds great to me! Can hardly wait to see it!

Pretty fabric. I love 9 patch quilts. Have fun. Get going.

I can't wait to see it completed. May I suggest a purple binding?

may I accept your suggestion of purple binding with gratitude? That's a wonderful suggestion. Don

Love your fabric choices! Can't wait to the the finished quilt.

I love to see someone excited but their fabric and quilts. You are off to a great start!
