Nostalgic 9 In 9 Fall Quilt Project Supply List
Even though I am not going to teach this fall (Gonna spend some time with my new Grandson!) the quilt projects will continue to be posted here at LynBrown.com. This Fall’s “Big” Quilt will be the Nostalgic 9 In 9. This is such a sweet quilt. My sample is done in a rainbow of colors but you could make it in reproduction fabrics or autumn or (Pick your favorite) Holiday! The stitching is easy… but there is a lot of it. I will be presenting it in little bits each week…

Mid Century Modern Sampler Quilt: Borders
WooHOO!
We are ready for the BORDER on our Mid Century Modern quilt! And the border is…
Color Blocks! We are repeating (or re-interpreting!) the design of the Tustin Color Block, this time using the Background as the “Sashing” instead of the Light, making a fine finish to our Mid Century design.
Here is the Border Pattern PDF….

A Staycation is when you vacation at home. Any time in my sewing room is a Staycation for me! So make this lovely quilt on your next Staycation! Using 2 1/2″ strips from a Bali Pop or a Jelly Roll or a swap or your own stash, this quilt goes together pretty easy with just a few tricks.

Mid Century Modern Sampler Quilt Setting Instructions (Corrected 6/16 7:30 pm)
I’ve been doing this (making and designing quilts) long enough (15+ years!) to know I always feel this way… But… Didn’t we just start this Sampler Quilt with the Sputnik Block? And here we are finishing it off! Or, well, at least setting all the different sized blocks together!

Mid Century Modern Quilt Block 19 MicroChips And Transistors
Note: There was an error on original pattern (SB Cut 36 ea. 1 1/2″ (NOT 2 1/2″) squares). Corrected PDF available below) I wish I could explain here in simple terms all about Transistors and MicroChips… What they are, how they work and how they differ. But I can’t… Because, despite some research, I just don’t understand.
