2008 Quilt #1 #2 & #3

This disappearing 9 patch quilt is a great way to use up stash. It's a very addictive pattern. This week I set my machine to quilt the 7 tops I have ready to quilt.  I have 2 friends who are due to have babies soon. Both have been told they are having boys. The 3rd one was from the left over blocks I had made. I only needed to make 2 more blocks to complete the smaller quilt. This is a great stashbusting pattern, and I used up lots of "boy" fabric. One is for Liam McLeish, one for my hairdresser's baby, Enno. The question that puzzles me the most is "Why do I have so much chicken fabric in my stash?" I don't like chickens, and I have never bought chicken related fabric...but there is quite a bit of it in my stash.

I think your amazing to have completed 4 quilts. Your definately a woman on a mission. Nice quilts too by the way.

These quilts look fabulous! The chicken fabric is however a real mystery?

Disappearing 9 Patch is such a great pattern, isn't it? I like the way you laid yours out. The black, white, and lime is snappy, too!
