Oh Paula, I don't mind. Your computer softwear enhances the colors beautifully. I love nine patches also. I know they are a simple block, but, I love the pattern. And, thank you. I am working on a disappearing nine patch(my first time) baby quilt for my boss. Her grandson was born 20 days after Baby B. (my grandson, my mom keeps forgetting his name. So she calls him Baby B. When she had her heart surgery there were complications and it affected her short term memory. She will eventually remember his name is Brantley. Besides, Baby B is a cute nickname for now.)

Baby B is a cute nickname - until he grows up. LOL It was funny (to me) the first time I heard my hubby's grandma call him Ricky.

I received Yaya's center from Judith yesterday. It is so very pretty in person. It will have to stay in the package for now as I have to finish this quilt for my mom for Christmas. I put the green border on this morning and will be quilting it this afternoon. Wish me luck as this is a larger one and I quilt on my small but wonderful Symphony by BabyLock.

Oh Paula, your quilt for your Mother is beautiful. I absolutely love it! I wish I knew how to do those blocks you have in the center. Any chance for a tutorial? They really make this quilt!!!

Thanks Linda. Mom loves butterflies and when I saw that fabric I knew I had to do a quilt for her with it.

If you are talking about the "flowers" they are appliqued. (This quilter can't do curved seams). I got the idea from a pattern I saw in Quilt magazine. I had thought about doing butterflies in those squares but the pink & green fabrics screamed out to be made into flowers.

I will see if I can create a tutorial about how I made them - it was rather easy.

I can never load a picture on here sorry.. it keeps saying upload file failed. So I guess Tam moo will have to post a picture of it when she gets it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, could someone give me step by step instructions for posting a picture, if so I'll try again. Sorry!

Gena, the picture you are trying to load may be too large. Do you know how to "compress" pictures on you computer?

Great centers, can't wait to see the finished quilts! Have fun!!

Paula, I love your mother's quilt. The butterfly fabric is a beautiful print. Can't wait to see what you decide on the borders.

Gena, I've been having a problem uploading photos too lately. I don't think it all has to do with the photo size. I think the board may be having some glitches. Sometimes you just have to retry to upload. Can't wait to see what you added onto your round. This is so much fun seeing what everyone is doing.
