I have been thinking about my box of tiny nine patches for a long time. I at last grabbed them up and started sewing. Here is where I am with my design. ON point!!! Hurrah!
I am hand binding this quilt for my darling DIL Lara for Christmas. She does not read the blog, so our secret is safe here. This was quilted by Paula, my quilting partner. She is retired and has a longarm!
Fall has arrived, with the arrival of tiny fall pumpkins at the grocery store. I love them!
Some zinnias popped up volunteer, from seeds planted in the spring. I love their cheerful colors, but the wind was blowing...that is OK. I can still see and appreciate the colors.
Lookee!! I do not know what this is...a plant from Home depot, on sale. It is blooming!!!

Love both of your quilts! You DiL is one lucky lady!
Like the nine patches, but it’s missing something… where’s the quilting cat? Paula did a spectacular job quilting Lara’s quilt!
Hello from Melbourne Aust and thanks for your blog, I enjoy seeing your lovely projects and garden. I think the little flower is an ageratum or floss flower, of the Aster family I think. All the best to you.
I like those 9 patches!
Julie, your 9-patch quilt just sings! Must be that the blocks are so happy to be released from storage! LOL
Love the purple quilt.
Those little pumpkins are just too hard to resist, aren't they?
Zinnias are so colorful and cheerful. They make me smile.
And hooray for the blooming mystery plant!! :)
Are your 9ps 3" finished? I have a box of them..... The purple quilt is a beautiful color and the quilting is terrific. Zinnias are still blooming here, though they're definitely winding down. We haven't had a frost yet.

Your tiny nine-patch project looks wonderful, and the on-point layout is perfect! Lara will adore such a heartfelt Christmas gift. Hand binding makes it even more special, what a beautiful secret surprise.
