I'm working on a nine-patch and snowball quilt for the RSC in 2025, inspired by Saija's quilt, here. Saija was inspired by Blue Elephant Stitches, here!!!
I have a lot of indigo blues in my scraps, as I lived in Japan, the land of blue and white, for 24 years! The indigo blues are too dark for this project. I have another project in mind, inspired by another blogger, for those indigo blue 2 1/2" squares. Stay tuned!
Check out these close-ups of my 9-patches and let me know if you have any of the same prints!
Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy
That is going to make a gorgeous quilt!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty blues - and fun blocks!! this will be afun one!!
ReplyDeletePretty blues. . .I spotted four that I have had at one time! That is a record!!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteYou've made some good progress on your BLUE blocks, Nancy. They're going to make a really lovely quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh yes - I see some blue fabrics that have also been in my stash. Can't beat a 9-patch - those look awesome.
ReplyDeleteLovely nine-patches! I love snowballs and nine-patches together in any form, but the two you linked are particularly bright and airy. Great post!
ReplyDeleteThose quilts you referenced are lovely! Can't wait to see your finished project!
ReplyDeleteLovely blues, and I don't have a single one in my stash. In fact, blue is the color I use least, so my stash of prints is nearly nil. I'm happy for you to have found a good use for yours though!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post
ReplyDeleteLots of beautiful blues in those 9-patches. I love the look of Saija's quilt and it seems to be a great use of scraps.
ReplyDeletePretty 9-patch blocks, love your blue fabrics! I don't see familiar fabrics shared with my stash, all yours are unique! Love the ombre effect too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
Pretty blues and I do so one or two I may have had...a swirly one and one with a dot/dash sort of pattern! Or we had it in the store and I think I had it!
ReplyDeleteThose are such pretty blues, Nancy! It's always fun to see your blocks up close. Love those snowball and 9 patch inspiration quilts, too - they're a neat design!
ReplyDeleteLots of different blues playing in your blocks. Maybe next year I'll make 16 patches... or not. Too early to make up my mind. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteSoo beautiful! Indigo blue is always my personal favorite, especially the Japanese one!
ReplyDeleteLovely blues. I am looking forward to seeing the snowball quilt at the end.
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty blue fabrics. A simple quilt and perfect for RSC! Can't wait to see the finish. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.
