I've got 2 totally different looks to my D9P quilts. One is B&W & Turquoise with sashings and cornerstones, set on point. The other is just a scrappy look with all the blocks set together in a straight setting. After doing the two, I really like the one with the sashing best. It's also easier to work with the bulk. When you do them without sashing, sometimes the seams aren't opposite and can be a pain if you don't want to repress everything.

I'm hoping to get the B&W one quilted this weekend too...started at the least.

Sorry the pics aren't capturing the whole quilt...my "quilt holder" is working and I'm winging it on my own. :)

Both of your quilts are Beautiful. You can definitely gegt different looks with different fabrics. Is the D9-patch a free pattern? It looks like this is one that I'll have to put on my forevering growing list of quilts to make.

Love both of these quilts, especially how you set the first one.:)

Both look gorgous! I love how you use the hangers!

lfletcher 10-21-2011 04:00 AM

I do really like the one set on point. I had not thought of that yet. Thanks for the good idea--I am currently working on a D9P and am not liking how it's coming out so I will try your setting.

Both quilts are really nice, but really like the first. You may have converted me to this pattern.

Both quilts are wonderful and love your fabric selections.

SueSew 10-21-2011 06:03 AM

They are both lovely - I am partial to blue and yellow and green so I like the scrappy one - the different fabrics all add just the right amount of texture or depth but still blend, if you know what I mean.

No pattern necessary! I see that someone posted a link to a tutorial...that should get you started.

All you do is use any size squares you want, make a 9-patch, cut it in half both directions, twist or flip flop 2 opposite blocks, then resew together.

I worked up a chart that should help with sizes:

My favorite is the first one. It has really changed my opinion about the Disappearing 9 Patch.

debcavan 10-21-2011 06:38 AM

They are gorgeous. I love your fabric choices.

DawnMarie 10-21-2011 06:40 AM

Great idea to add the sashing. What a difference that makes! Wonderfully done!

Ann912 10-21-2011 06:41 AM

adnil458 10-21-2011 06:44 AM

kso 10-21-2011 07:34 AM

Love the turq, black and white.

nativetexan 10-21-2011 07:36 AM

both beautiful but love the sashings one best. i just bought the Eleanor Burns pattern last night at a demo I went to. I only bought it because it has the fabric requirements which always helps.

Both are lovely! I do especially like the second one because those are some of my favorite colors. Thanks for sharing. :)

btiny36 10-21-2011 09:00 AM

Beautiful. I started one with black/white/turq. but it has been put to the way side...soon I will hopefully get back at it.
