My first Disappearing 9 patch
#41
Well, I woke up this morning and decided I had to fix those darn corners after all. SO.... here is the "final" finished top.
Does anyone even notice the difference? I do, and I like it much better. (Sometimes the small things make a big difference!)

I love figuring out patterns . It isn't always easy to get books here in Newfoundland and by the time I ordered it and had it come I'd probably have my mind changed!

Also try out eBay.. I'm an eBay junkie and have found some great quilting stuff there!

I love everything about this quilt, the colors everything. You have done a great job. All I can say is beautiful!!! :thumbup:
Do you think I can use a 5 inch block to make this quilt? How many 9" blocks do I need to make? It doesn't really say in the link.
Any advice you can give me would be great!!!!!!
Thanks in advance!

I don't see why 5" blocks would not work. I used 6" blocks. The number of blocks required depends entirely on how big you want the quilt to be.
Have fun, and be sure to show us your work! :lol: :wink: :)

cnolan, at first I did not understand what the corner problem was, but after studying the two pictures, I see what you mean, you wanted the colors to be opposite each other.
Either way is nice, but I'm glad you fixed it so you'd be happy! I know I'd probably grind my teeth every time I saw it if I knew it wouldn't have been so rough to fix.
