Another pile of squares...
 

Most of the beautiest quilts start with a simple square of fabric. I've found a pile of soft-colored fabrics And i cut it into.... correct: into squares:

Take two of them and sew:

Now we need a contrasting fabric. I choose (chose? :shock: ) a deep dark chocolate-soft brown. And I cut it into.... na? Na? Squares!!!! :D

"Cut 'n sew" is the mantra of a quilter... so do i.

*mumble* "cut n sew, cut n sew cut n sew..."

Now we need some complete squares of our fabric-pile an some of the chocolat... and of course: our sewn-Triangel-square-Whatever

Ouh! It looks like a.... Ninepatch! :shock:
And what want we do with a ninepatch? Correct: Cut n sew! Cut n sew!

What wonderful fabrics! please post when it's finished.

And when you've got more of that... you can make (how surprise!) a quilt:

(its only a photomontage, I'm still sewing on it...)

Your tutorial was like a mystery story with every cut delivering another twist. It was educational and inspiring. I love the sew, cut up, and sew again type blocks. I have bookmarked your tutorial for future reference. Thank you!

You are so right it all starts with squares. Beautiful color selections too. Beautiful quilt is the outcome.

Very pretty. Love the darker background-really makes your colored squares "pop"

Amazing - I would never have thought of doing that!

Beautiful top so far. Thank you.

More pics of the assembling of my layout?

:rolleyes:

First Step: Add a sashing with a coloured cornerstone to the D9P

Add a sashing with cornerstone between this blocks.

(there will be a hole in the middle, because I'm not exact enough to use a middle cornerstone.)

Where is the 2. pic??? :shock:

Here!

Now we add more Sashings with cornerstones (how boring!) :eek:

There are also holes between them.

The blue pointed squares are the holes, oki?

Now we need two sets of four single-blocks and.... sashings with cornerstones! :p

And now we add the blocks to our centerblock and sew a bigger dark sashing around:

At last we close the ugly holes in the top. with little appliques like this:

Now it's ready to rumble....ah, no, to sandwich and quilt! :D
