Blooming 9 Patch


This old polaroid is of the first "blooming 9 patch" quilt I made. From a pattern by Blanche Young. It is so much fun...each new fabric or row of "blooms" is added gradually by mixing it with the fabric of the last row before it is allowed to stand on it's own....a lovely colorwash result!
This queen-size quilt helped my daughter to start her internet travel business, as it was given by me in partial payment to the talented young woman who designed her first "Caribbean Journey" website!
