K-that is a great quilt. Love the scrappy look and all the different colors. You hand quilted? Impressive...can you post a close-up of the quilting? Did you do it in the ditch or an all over pattern?
Okay, just went back and saw the quilting work - it's stunning. what perfect little stitches K. :)

K-White, I love your hand quilting!
I am going to attempt hand quilting on my current project
and hope my stitches look like yours.......
(you must reveal your secrets for hand quilting----
and don't say 20 years of practice :evil: ---I can't wait that
long to do a decent job....)
The nine patches are gorgeous!

I love the quilt! You did a great job. Nice with the hand quilting. Do you have a quilting frame? What sort of pattern did you quilt? What is the size of the quilt?

I didn't work on it full time for the whole time but I think I started to quilt it about three years ago. It took about an hour per block so 144 hours approx. I got really bored by time I got to the last round and switched up the quilting pattern. I have ADD so I get antzy and need a change.
dark blue is the second round lighter blue is the last round.
