Framed Nine-Patch Flimsy

I have been able to do a bit of sewing.  Not much, but at least it's something.

July has arrived and the new colour for the rainbow challenge is blue.  I can do that.  I have lots of blues.

But before I play with my favourite colour,  I want to show you my framed nine patch flimsy.  I found these blocks in an unmarked box when I was looking for something else.  I have no idea when I started them.  And I don't remember what I was going to make.  There were 15 blocks altogether.   Each block will measure 10 inches finished.  I decided on a four by four layout.  That would give me a 40in by 40in  quilt.  Big enough for a baby or perhaps a wheelchair quilt.  So that meant I had to make 1 more block.  And since it was June and the colour of the month was purple I made a purple one.


And here is the whole quilt top.  I hope to take it from a flimsy to a completed quilt soon.  Next week I have an appointment with the eye specialist.  He will decide if eye glasses of some kind will benefit me.  I hope so.  It has been a long time since I was able to see anything either up close or in the distance.

  1. All the best for your eye appointment!

    The framed 9-patches look great. With only having to make one more block, it is almost like an instant quilt top.

  2. Your blocks look great! I hope they can come up with a solution for you for glasses that will work well.
