Blooming 9-Patch - oopsies!
1 Attachment(s)
I saw a picture of a blooming 9-patch quilt (before I knew what it was called), and decided to make one. So, of course, I made a mistake in figuring out the pattern - AFTER - I had cut all the squares LOL
I didn't realize that the nine-patches were fabrics 1 and 2, then 2 and 3, then 3 and 4. I sewed them as 1 & 2, then 3 & 4, etc. so I had LOTS of extra solid squares left LOL. BUT, in the end I like it better, because it's not as big! [ATTACH=CONFIG]538439[/ATTACH] |
That is a lovely flow of colors!
|
I like it.
|
Looks great!!
|
Nicely done! Great colors~
|
Love it. Beautiful choice of fabric and colors!
|
Really lovely, what a beautiful mistake!
|
I think it looks great. Blanche Young was a very innovated quilter that I was lucky to have meet her numerous time (shopping at M&L fabrics) and taken a DWR class from her. She could pick the ugliest fabric and make them into a stunning quilt. Her book Tradition with a Twist is where this pattern can be found. I am sure she would be pleased with the outcome of this quilt.

Pretty quilt! The center just glows.
|
Wonderful work. I like your use of fabric and color.

Gorgeous and now it's an original!

Wonderful colors, you did a terrific job. Who cares what the original was supposed to be, it turned out great.

Thanks all, and now I have enough left overs for maybe a wall hanging swap???

If that is a mistake, it is surely a beautiful one!
