My beginning "Friendship Stars and Nine Patch" quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
Here is a pic of some the stars I've been working on.... and a few of the nine patches..... I have already put 9 blocks together to make a row..... will show more when I get a few more rows put together.... It is so relaxing to set and sew a few of these blocks together..... I'm getting them done quicker then I thought I would just by doing a few here and there.... These are made with 2.5" blocks..... I love the scrappies......

your bottom right star is sewn wrong. Thought you might like to know before you get to far ;-) It will be nice looking quilt .

Thanks for pointing that out to me.... I wouldn't have notice until I started putting it together.... LOL.... but I just might leave it that way..... ;-)

Sometimes I do that.... but this time I didn't.... if you scroll down you would see that I did fix that star.... just couldn't keep it that way on this one.... but trust me, I will do that..... and have on several... ;-)

I love the way it is going together.

calicojoan 08-20-2014 05:40 AM

Ohhhh, I do love those friendship stars. I'm working on mini ones right now myself! Looks like your having fun!

Caswews 08-20-2014 06:59 AM

Looks very pretty !!

I'd say you're off to a great start on your friendship star and 9-patch quilt. It's amazing how much you can get done even working in just short periods of time, it all adds up.

These are easy to get wrong if you let your attention wander. I made a quilt of these and was surprised...and annoyed...at how often I sewed the pieces together wrong.

Yours are very nice. Will make a lovely quilt!

solstice3 08-20-2014 06:00 PM

Very nice!

joyful1 08-27-2014 12:58 PM

Having fun with this pattern and all the different material.... love the scrappies....

I usually like working with bigger blocks, but for some reason I am loving these little squares.... :-) and would love to see yours...... if you post it on here please send me a PM letting me know, so I can look at it.....

Thank you... and I know what you are saying about sewing them wrong... I did that several times.... :-)
