Well I did make a few more of those nine-patches
Here are 12 blocks out of 16 which will make a 4x4 layout.
Using the other four nine patches I completed 4 churn dash blocks to try out my solids choices against the thirties fabric. Unlike Julie's quilt I am using the same solids for each Churn Dash.
And then I added a thin sashing strip with contrasting cornerstone in the same fabrics as the ninepatches. So far I am liking it!
I was not sure of the size of Julie's nine patches but I am sure mine are giant-sized compared to hers. No little lap quilt this after all! This is one-quarter of the quilt top unless I add a border too.
But I cannot finish without getting more of those solid fabrics - back to Mandy at Simply Solids then...

That is going to be a very nice quilt SS. Keep it up so that it doesn't become a UFO (I am laughing here - says she the queen of all UFO's). Thanks for directing me to JulieKquilts. Always good to ogle a few more quilts.
