Wow Givio, that turned out beautiful! Transforming the 9 patches into stars have such a gorgeous effect, that is something I may consider doing with the next round of 9 patches.

This is turned out so cute. I agree with your husband.

It's tempting to sew them, then bring the top to be quilted at the LAer. But, for now, I'm leaving it in three pieces in order to facilitate the QAYG method.
The sunshine through the tree leaves make it harder to see the pattern with the shadows-- but when the clouds went over the sun it's harder to see the bright pretty colors of the 9patches in that shot. Well! You get the idea of how it looks. :-) My husband helped me straighten it during the breeze episodes and pronounced, "It's really cute!" which is all the praise I need. Thanks to everyone again for swapping with me during the last round. I still have several more blocks left, so-- more sewing to come.
