My Blooming 9-patch
 
3 Attachment(s)
I've been wanting to make this pattern for a while, and finally did it. I've been doing a lot of "use-up-my-stash" quilts, and haven't been fabric shopping in a long time. So even though I still have lots of stash, I decided to actually go to a shop and buy all the fabric for the quilt at once .... with a little help from the shop owner, I came up with this combination. (I did end up buying the backing online).

The colors aren't quite true to life in the pictures. the pictures make it look more blue than it is ... should be purple. And the orange isn't quite as bright as in the picture.

I quilted it with Glide 60 thread, using a panto that is very meandering.

Ohhhhh i’m in love! I just love it! I have the book and yours just made me add it to my 2022 list of quilts to do. Beautifully done.

I think Blooming 9 patch is hard to make from a stash because of the different amounts of same or similar fabrics. You purchased great combinations and made a beautiful quilt. That panto pattern looks like one I use a lot and really like called Bora Bora. I haven't purchased fabric in quite a while but after seeing your quilt I'm thinking of pulling out my pattern and considering a purchase for Christmas.

This is gorgeous! Well done! I've only made a baby quilt in this pattern but you've inspired me to think about doing a bigger quilt one of these days.
