Molly shared her Blooming Nine Patch where she used fabrics that
transitioned through color changes. Nice job, Molly!
Close up:
Blaire pointed out tiny triangles in the corners of her blocks
that create a special look to her quilt.
A very nice scrappy quilt!
Blaire's quilt has a border of strips often called a piano key border. Her background fabrics create interest because they are different.
Merri completed this top and she got all her points to meet! Yay Merri!
Betsy W made this quilt along with a friend so she could show her friend how to cut the same shapes out of different fabrics to make this pattern. Nice teamwork, Betsy!
Pat G shared her very interesting quilt made of jelly rolls!
Super work!
