Nine Patch

lg4

This is Lorna’s Nine Patch baby quilt and she used small cat print panels for setting blocks.  I kept the quilting light as the fabrics were bold and the backing was flannel so that keeps the quilt soft.   I used black So Fine thread in the outer border and just quilted piano keys in the black so the quilting does not compete with the bold stripe print.  I used a bright Rainbow thread for the CC’s in the Nine Patches and black thread to stitch simple frames around the cat blocks.

  2. Beautiful! My mother always used to tell me that you shouldn't use "black" for children's stuff - but I LOVE this. I guess mom isn't "always" right! Lovely quilt ladies.
