Here is the finished quilt for a fund raiser for a friend's son. It is made of only two blocks: nine-patch and shoo fly. Not that my timing was too close, but I finished it at 2:46 am on the day of the fundraiser. It was still warm from the dryer (I have to wash all quilts because of my feline quality control department) when I dropped it off at 9am that day!! When will I ever learn???

I like it -
Thank you for including the names of the two blocks you used - I'm familiar with both of them and really had to look to figure them out.
Nothing like a deadline to get things finished!
I, too, have a feline quality assurance inspector.

REALLY REALLY COOL! Love it! Thanks for posting it because it would work GREAT for SIGNATURE QUILTs that I volunteered to make!
You solved my 'what am I going to make' problem!

I am always amazed at how well some blocks play together. I personally like the secondary star pattern that pops out. It sure does look a lot harder that it actually was to make.Originally Posted by Farmer Girl
Nice quilt. Should raise a lot of money. Love your colors and placement. Would have looked a long time to figure out the blocks!
Thank you for the kind words!!

The quilt is not only beautiful, but I think you chose the right colors for the right time of the year since the 4th of July is close. I would hope that would make it sell even faster and for more. I would certainly snatch that quilt up in a second; I love it.
