The name of this is a play on words – this is a variation of a disappearing nine patch, ‘neuf’ being French for ‘nine’ and grapes equal wine?! A bit tortuous I suppose but it amuses me... doesn't take much! The blocks were left overs from the OBW in my avatar. I FMQd grape tendrils in the centres and feathers in the borders with bubble spines - something I wanted to try, not perfect, need more practice! It’s size renders it suitable as a small throw or as a table topper or wall hanging - 40” x 40”. Thanks for looking. :-D
