30’s Nine Patch By: chrisb, Australia
I made this to try out the Quilting design on the border and to use up some inherited pastels and some of my 30’s fabrics. Meant to be nice and quick but the hourglass fabric shrank when I was pressing and I had to go back and recut every 9 patch. Grrrrr

Blooming Nine Patch By: Darlene Gerber, Ohio, USA
I say my first Blooming Nine Patch at a local quilt show and decided to make one using directions I found on the internet. Using my 1990’s stash caused me to run out of fabric and I had to redo some of the blocks to complete the quilt. Now I have to figure out what fabric to use for the binding.

Save the Planet By: Nann Hilyard, Illinois, USA
I’ve made many 9-patch quilts–wish I could post more than one! This was made on New Year’s Eve. I found a stack of bright 9p blocks and the setting fabric (a thrift-shop bargain) was perfect. I contributed it to a charity auction and it brought $150!

Seasons By: Rhoda Forbes, British Columbia, Canada
I embroidered the panels over the winter, and had no idea how I would incorporate them into a quilt. Nine patch, being my favorite block, came to mind. I used recycled material, plaids from men’s shirts, and cream 100%cotton to create the nine patches. I was thrilled with the end result.

Isn’t it absolutely amazing what can be done with a simple 9 patch……….sure glad I could pick 3 cause even then it was tough.
All of the quilts are fabulous. I am getting married tomorrow so the wedding quilt caught my eye and the Texas wildflowers as the blues and yellows will be my bedroom quilt when it is finished in log cabin pattern.
Congratulations on your marriage! That Texas wildflower fabric will make a beautiful logcabin quilt for you.
Congrats. to the winners!! This was so much fun! Now I am off to buy this amazing ruler!!
