Small and Smaller 9-patch


It's time for our Sew Small Guild to meet again tonight.  So, I have been working on Small and Smaller quilts.  This month is the nine patch.  I've enjoyed working with these, although sometimes I'm in such a hurry to get them done, I don't watch all my seams as I should.  Still, I'm enjoying these small quilts.  I'm going on a small trip, so the binding is just pinned down for the pictures, I'll bind them on my trip.

This one will hang in my husband's office.  He doesn't have a Halloween quilt...yet.  This one was made with the fabrics he chose from my stash.


These fabrics were also started from my stash, but I had to buy the yellow print to add to it.  I think it looks like a picnic quilt.  It is only 10 1/2 inches square.


Then, Richard got me these lovely fall flowers, just because.  They are beautiful colors, aren't they!  I love being inspired by color.


Nature provides beautiful color this time of year.  These maple trees are in our own yard.


I took this one just before they started blowing away in the wind.  Now they are mostly in the yard, and neighborhood.



Now, a few tidbits from Alaska.  First our Cake for our Anniversary dinner.


Then, dessert another evening...  The presentation in the dining room is so great!


Then, a watermelon carved for a centerpiece.  Beautiful and amazing work by the artists on the ship.


Enjoy the color, and be inspired!  Keep Sewing!
