    You have put together 1050 little tiny blocks. There is no way I could do that! I'd go insane. Having said that you should know that I think both your quilts are beautiful.

    What a wonderful way to use scraps, even the smallest ones! outer borders make the black quilt pop as well as the sashing. Those quilts will surely receive lots of love ! Thanks for sharing.

    "Same Different as Me" is the name of a book. It think it fits your quilts here. I am a twin and I love that they are the same but different.

    Both quilts are lovely. They have very different "personalities" due to the different background fabric.

    There is something rewarding about making 9 patches. They are pretty easy, and the end result is often quite pretty, so I don't mind.

    Thank you. I was wondering the same thing. Guess lots of people are interested in being copycats of such a great quilt.
