Last night I made 4 more of these nine patches using my Liberty scraps. I have no idea how I will put these together in a quilt yet - I have been thinking of making a lap quilt to have at my cottage this summer.
By the way, I solved my issues sewing these thinner and tightly woven tana lawn fabrics by buying a set of 70/10 needles which work fine with my 50wt Aurifil thread. The thinner needles seem to glide easily through the fabrics.
Now its time to announce the winners from the April Scraptastic Tuesday link up.

ReplyDeleteI love those nine patches (I only use 70/10 needles for piecing) and think a summer quilt would be gorgeous! Thank you so much for my prize!
