So - leave these alone and NEXT TIME do a DNP!!! Plenty more quilts to make!!!

That is part of the quilting process!!!

looks great as is.many quilts are starting thinking one thing and change along the way-just part of the creative process

It looks great as it is. I also think it would make a wonderful D9P all those brights would just pop. I think you would get more wow with the D9P.

You can always make enough for 2 and do both. =)
I like it the way you have it laid out..but can also see where it would really be awesome as a D9P. =)

I love the 9 patches you have in your picture. I would go ahead and finish this one as a 9 patch and then make another one the same way and make it into a disappearing 9 patch.
Good job!

Sometimes it's better to continue on your original path. I love the blocks the way you have them, but if you will always feel that it is not what you intended, then get to cutting.

I was thinking a thing sashing would make the squares stand out more, too.

Think of it not as "I can't make up my mind," but as "I have ideas for more quilts!"

I saw an amazing DNP on here with black white and red in the center (sorry but I can’t remember whose quilt it was). It's what inspired my colors. You ladies are so talented!! I ordered the pattern for the bow tuck tote yesterday and that will be my next project after this quilt if finished. I’m sure it’ll take me a while to finish this quilt because I only get to work on it for a little while at night after work. I’ll make sure I post a pic when it’s done. Thanks for all of the suggestions!

I think that the good thing about d9p is the fact there are no seams to match. D9p was one of my firsts, too. Be sure to post what you end up doing with these patches I think they are stunning.

Looks nice as is, but remember if you make Disappearing 9 patch you will lose even more to seam allowances. It will "Shrink" So maybe size you want will help determine what to do
