9 Patch

Here are some pictures of my 9 patch quilt. It is huge, big enough to fit my queen size bed. 110, 9 patches made from batiks I have collected for many years. Some are leftovers from my students projects. I was happy with it, but when I started quilting it it really came together. The variegated thread was really the final touch! I still have some quilting to do before binding but was anxious to share with you.

  1. I LOVE your quilt!!! I think the batiks look beautiful offset with the white.... (I have a bunch of batiks, will have to file this idea away for later)

    And the quilting looks great! Do you mark your grid lines first or use a quilting guide? I have used the guide myself, but it doesn't always come out straight! :)
