Wow ............ I just saw this thread today, so many gorgeous and wonderful quilts. Here's my addition ...... it's my daughter and son-in-law's wedding quilt.

All of these are amazing and strike me as so difficult to grasp the planning and organization. It would be so easy to piece it wrong or to just fall short of the goal. All of these made it in spades. Great show of artistic and creative work!!!

This is one of my favorite quilts. I love the simplicity of a 9P. I am so drawn to small pieces and the potential they have. These are made from 1" strips and squares that are trimmings. No yardage comes to harm when making these 9P:D. They are random lights and darks with darks in the center and corners. It uses lots of 1" pieces...5,832 to be exact. It measures 91" x 106".

In early 2015, I counted up and had over 700 9P's I decided to do something with them. My inspiration was this antique quilt. I think I had enough to do this for our queen bed and drew up the pattern in EQ. https://tse2.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.h...pr=1.2&pid=1.7 By March of 2015, I had the flimsy finished...I did have it LA quilted and put the binding on it in July of 2016. |

This is my most difficult and rewarding quilt. The cutting alone took 4 days. The piecing took about a month's work. The pattern is called Eldon and it is all Y seams. It was started as a project at a quilt retreat. I don't think I would have ever picked it up on my own, but I just love it. I have used the star block many time since. It makes a beautiful table topper.
