Here is a link to the McCall's Quilting pattern I used for the basis. This quilt needed to be a king size, and I did not have any more of the yellow teacup focus fabric left, so to stretch it to a king, I added the 9 patch blocks and arranged all 3 different blocks into a symmetrical pattern. I used EQ5 for the planning, as you can see on page 1 here.

I had made up the Snowball blocks for a different quilt when I saw the Prairie Star Promise in my McCalls issue and they were the same size requirement!

When my friend Laura said she wanted a blue and yellow quilt, and knowing she loves tea and teacups, I told her I had just the quilt in mind!

Beatiful! :thumbup: Very clever adding the 9 patch block to make it bigger, Love the chain effect it adds. I never would have thought of that I always add more rows or borders(boring :roll: )

A spectacular finish! It was fun watching from your design phase to the finished beauty. Impressive work!
