GO FORTH: they are warm. and they shall know they are loved!

i did TWO posts this week! if you're interested in seeing and reading about one of our family's oldest and favorite traditions, click HERE.


 just like the song that never ends, here are some 9 patches that seem to go on and on... 

99 leftover 9 patches, to be exact! leftover from RSC18 (eclectic  AND bohemian) and RSC19 (L/D 9 patches, pieced into an Irish Chain Family table cloth.) ( i see a couple donuts and shoo fly blocks snuck into this top, too...) 

in RSCland December is supposed to be Put All The Blocks Together Month. i try to be a Good Quilter, so after pulling this stack of blocks out of the Parts Department Drawer, i put them up on the design wall, doing my best to arrange them in a pleasing manner. i'm happy with how this top turned out (it's so colorful and cheery!) and i'll take it in to Scraps2Wraps this week, and we'll finish it up. (tying it)

then, it's ready to travel somewhere as a donation quilt- either locally, or even overseas...

    Great use of those 9-patch blocks! I have a bunch of 4-patch blocks that need to become something. I'm thinking just alternating them with plain squares might be my solution as there aren't enough for a whole quilt.

    Great way to use up your 9 patch blocks! That will definitely make a warm and cozy quilt for a special someone.

    Would you believe that I didn't notice the Donuts or other random blocks until you mentioned them? This quilt top makes me SEW happy!! The mix of color and those fun "trails" across the quilt make me want to stare at it all day. Either that or race up to the studio to start one of my own! :o))
