Very pretty! I like how you used the three colors but with 9 different fabrics.

Mine was just 3 fabrics, red, ivory and pink. I'm currently making one from charm packs of blue/yellow/ivory/green floral patterns, I hope it turns out as nice as the first.

I love using this block. I am making one with Halloween fabrics that will be a tablecloth when finished.

This one uses nine fabrics. We wanted a scrappy look.

If you have a photo of your d9p can you post it and tell me how many different fabrics used and the placement of the fabrics to make your specific quilt? I am leaning towards 4 to 5 fabrics. Thanks in advance.

I can never just do things the simple way so I did a twisted sampler style version. I believe I used 3 fabrics. I purposely made each block different and forced myself to use at least one normal D9P in each block.
