Here is the darling patriotic quilt zjsquiltymomma sent me!! Isn't it adorable? It's a Disappearing 9 Patch, which I just love!! And it's hand quilted. Thank you so much, Jenni. And I LOVED those batik FQs from the quilt shop in NYC. Hope you had a great trip, and I know you'll love your little quilt I sent when you get home this week!!

Is that the way you did the corner blocks? I like how it looks!

Thank you Janice! I'm so glad you like the quilt and the FQ's. That's the first time I've tried the Disappearing 9 Patch. It was fun to make! I'm looking forward to seeing the DQ you made me in person next week. :) Happy 4th!

Yes, after I turned the folded triangle blocks so they went the right direction, it was quick. I think I will work on this more another time. Kathy in Colo

Prairiekat: Thanks for explaining how you did those corners. I am going to give it a try.

I sent my quilt and my partner received it. However, i was so having so much fun and so worried about sending it on time, I forgot to take a photo before I mailed it. I haven't received mine yet, but t's in the mail. I will post a photo as soon as I get it. I must say one thing though, as I look at these post I am awed at the craftsmanship I only hope that one day I can graduated to that level of ability. I have really enjoyed seeing all these wonderful little quilts.

Received my wonderful little quilt in the mail from my partner STAR! I just LOVE the fabrics she used in it. I love the decorative stitching she used for the quilting too! She sent along some very cute 30's FQ's for me to add to my stash. I love and collect 30's prints so they have a good home. :)

Thank you so much again STAR!

This is my newest addition to my collection.
Oralee I love it. Its very pretty. I am wondering how bored it will be here at my house. lol - that quilt has been to more places than I have. The label is awesome. The hand quilting is very nice.
Thank you for my lovely new quilt.
