This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Quilting Quickly: Patterns, Techniques & Tips »

Instructions

Disappearing nine-patch with sashing and then borders. Hand quilted around blocks.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Style: Funky


Materials

Left over scraps of material for the quilt top, batting and muslin for the backing.

What was your inspiration?

After taking the beginning online quilting course with Jenny Doan, I wanted to use up my scraps of material using Jenny's disappearing nine-patch pattern. As it turned out, I had just enough scraps to use. Jenny inspired me to begin this project and I would get back online to Jenny's class from time to time before going to the next step of the quilt. It was fun, educational and I ended up with a quilt that my husband says is beautiful.

What are you most proud of?

That I was able to finish it.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

It's an easy pattern and so much fun to sew. Just keep at it and soon it's all done.

I love this kind of quilt. Geometric, homey, funky! I like how the yellow squares pop out!
