In case you missed it in the picture above, my assistant was at the ready.
I don't think I ever showed you guys the finished disappearing nine patch blocks.
I really like how they turned out, though that skinny sashing was a little temperamental.
Ah yes, a parting shot of my lovely assistant doing her job.
Now that is a pose for "Pets on Quilts" if I ever saw one.
This Wednesday...

Back, Back, Back Burner:
These will likely be touched sometime in the future - I should really rename this category to "I want to remember that I have these projects, but realistically they won't be touched till 2015 because I'm too busy doing other stuff"
- Beginner Quilt Along at Quilting Gallery - Piecing the backing is in progress
- Discontinuity 2 - gotta make it bigger for big girl bed. On hold for now.
- Curves Class goodies - there are a few more projects I want to try, but they are on hold for now.
This week's stats:
Completed projects - blocks plus SIDNew projects - 0
Currently in Progress - 5 ish
Don't forget to link up any blocks you have been working on to the Building Blocks Tuesday post. It stays open for a whole week.
Oh! And, I put together a Facebook page for Quilter in the Closet. I am up to 3 likes!
And as always, thanks for reading,

Wow, those DP9 blocks are fantastic! I've never thought of doing them with a solid to match the background fabric. And that little sashing seems intense, but it looks great!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, your piecing looks perfect. And what a beautiful light room to work in. I made myself a machine cover. I like it, and it makes me happy to see it finished. It was fast and easy, nothing fancy at all, but it is done.

ReplyDeleteAwwww - - I have a 'helper' like that one! She's holding it down for you momma! Good looking quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh, I really like that quilt design (it's on my looooong to-do list...) and your colors are so pretty and fresh. I am sure you kitty was very helpful:)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you will be wrestling with that quilt for a while! Basting is my least favourite part of the whole process, maybe I need a "helper",
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty quilt - I really like that pattern!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, the top and the kitty!
ReplyDeletehmmmm.....I wonder if laying on safety pins is like meditating on a bed of nails.....
ReplyDeleteYour quilt top is lovely! Love the fabrics with this pattern.
