  • December Doll Quilt-Magic 9-Patch

    December Doll Quilt-Magic 9-Patch

    Susie in my Wednesday class was asking if the Magic 9-Patch could be made as a Doll Quilt. After a short discussion, she went home and made this lovely little quilt.

    Starting with 2 1/2″ squares, Susie made 6 1/2″ 9-Patches. Then she cut the blocks into quarters, rotated two diagonally opposite pieces 180 degrees and stitched the pieces back together to make a Disappearing 9-Patch block. She made 12 similar blocks in 12 different but coordinating fabrics for an adorable, fun and fast Doll quilt. So cute I decided to use this as our December Doll Quilt. The PDF is at the end of this post.

    There are moments in life that just seem unreal. When I received an email from QUILT editor Debra Finan saying my Quilt would be on the cover of the next issue, I was in a state of disbelief. But after double checking with Debra AND seeing it for myself… It is REAL! And it’s on the newsstand!

    Repeat Revolution

    Seldom does anything really revolutionary happen in quilting. New fabrics, new tools and new patterns certainly are constantly appearing. But whole new methods are extremely rare.

    Quilters Alphabet 48:  The “X Block” Block

    I suppose in every alphabet quilt, the X Is difficult. Do you portray a xylophone? An X-Ray? I saw something that suggested “eXtra time to sew!” That hit too close to home!
