When I flipped my calendar this morning I was not excited.
I was so not excited that I decided I was only going to use scraps because I was just sure I would never like this block and would certainly never use it in a quilt. Then this happened...
You know what, I like it, and I'm going to use it in a quilt. As a matter of fact, I was thinking that it would be fun to use all the scraps I have at the end of the year to make a quilt and this block would be perfect for that. I will just have to see how many scraps I have left. This is an 8-inch block and is number 208 of 366.
Here are my 9-patches for this week. I can't believe I've finished 70 blocks so far. They sure are quicker to make than the block of the day. If I continue at 10 a week I should be at 120 blocks by Labor Day. Link up if you have some 9-patches to show, and don't forget to check out the Meadowbrook facebook page. Happy Stitching!! --Kristen
