DD9P For Guild Raffle
1 Attachment(s)
Guild members contributed the 9-patches I started with.
I did a twice-cut D9P. Roughly queen-size. it was quilted by a professional. another professional did the binding. i wish you could see that binding in person. i needed a magnifying glass to see the hand stitches on the back. mind blown! [ATTACH=CONFIG]600497[/ATTACH] |

I love the quilt. I bet it sells many tickets at the guild raffle,:thumbup:

Gorgeous quilt. I hope it raises lots of money for your guild and its outreach.
|
Very pretty! I've not seen this pattern, the double DNP. Could you please explain how the second cut is made?
|
Wow, very nicely done!
|
Great quilt!
|
OH! I saw your prototype which is very pretty, and this one is just gorgeous! You do beautiful work.
|
That's gorgeous! I'm sure you'll make lots of money on that one.

I too saw the prototype and like the way the 9 patch show up. Good job!

That is a fun quilt with all the colors. Love how the multiple designs showed up plus the black squares.

This is beautiful, Patrice! I bet it raises a lot of money.

I love the quilt. Just wondering....what size squares did you start with. I'm guessing about 6~8 inches since you were cutting twice. And what size were the finished squares? Thanks for sharing.
|
Oh I really do like that pattern.
|
What a beautiful quilt--all the designs really show up! Good luck on the raffle, it should do well!
|
This is really a beautiful quilt!
|
wow....this is a real beauty........
|
Am excited to see this made into a pattern. Beautiful.

which tells how to cut the 9 patch on both diagonals and then sew however you like it, then cut the resulting block on the horizontal and vertical centers to make the final block. (Patrice explains it better on the 'prototype' thread.) Janey - Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do. |
Very pretty quilt and hope it makes a lot of money for the cause.

Janey - Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do. i forgot to mention that the cuts are easier to make if you press all seams open. the starting 9-patches were made from 5" squares. i know the goal was to square the final blocks to 12.5" unfinished. also, unless you are lucky enough to have all the beginning 9-patches pressed open and exactly correct, matching up all the different intersections at the second and third stage of re-assembly can be quite a challenge. i might have had to settle for squaring to 12" unfinished because so many were oddly sized to start with. (the perils of a group quilt.) honestly can't remember. the good news is that if you "go scrappy" the inevitable imperfections are not horribly obvious. :) |
Nice work.
|
Lovely quilt.
|
Nicely done. I love the color combination.
