Ninepatch & Hourglass
115" X 115"
This is my second quilt. I also quilted it on my Bernina 1230, and did all the piecing on my Featherweight. It is a scrap quilt with over 7,400 pieces of fabric. It is made with alternating nine patch & hourglass blocks, and is framed with an appliquéd border. This was a gift to my husband celebrating Father's Day, in 1997. The pattern came from "Quick & Easy Scrap Quilts" by Leisure Arts.
