This turned out really nice as a D9P. Good job.

I love your quilt. Just a question did you do just a two color 9 patch
for the initial blocks and then mix and match the cut apart pieces?
Good job!

Thank you Loretta, Charlie2, Bev, and Mrs Mel! :D

Sewlady31 - I used 8 different fat quarters. I cut them into 5" strips and 5" strips of the background fabric - making each into a 9 patch. Each nine patch was just the background fabric and one of the fat quarter colors.

I followed gcathie's instructions that she posted for her DP9 - if you go to page 3 of the following link, you'll see how easy it is to do!

Good luck!!

Vicki that's fabulous! I love it! And the border arrangement really sets it off.

Thanks for the info. I am the type of person that needs the visual to
see how it is actually going to turn out.
I would like to make up a few of these, for my nephews clan, they
lost their belongs and house in a fire, so when they get situated I thought
that I would have quilts similar so they would somewhat match for his
four little ones. If I go with more complicated piecing, they might be
graduating before I get them all done.
Thanks so much for the inspiration.
