I didn't actually start sewing until Day 41, but I sewed like crazy and finished them all by September 18 (which I think was Day 60?) I'm not a very fast sewer, so I'm giving all of the speed credit to <a href="http://www.stitchsimple.com" rel="nofollow">Stitch Simple</a> for prepping and cutting my fabric so I didn't have to do any of that. <br /><br />Hopefully I can get the sashing fabric and make time to assemble the quilt ... my goal is to do that in October. This has been a super fun project and I'll definitely participate in the next quilt-along you have, AmandaJean - thanks!<br /><br /><a href="http://blog.quiltivate.com/main/2009/09/ninepatches-with-stitch-simple-fabric.html" rel="nofollow">Here's my mid-block-assembly update!</a>Kacie R.http://www.quiltivate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-37082469131593107022009-09-30T14:36:22.624-05:002009-09-30T14:36:22.624-05:00I think you'll have to do round three for this...I think you'll have to do round three for this girl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-5168174145558546212009-09-30T13:12:53.669-05:002009-09-30T13:12:53.669-05:00you are putting me to shame over here!

I've finished the blocks, but that's it. My quilt is much brighter than I anticipated, but I think i'm going to love it. I did find myself wanting to buy a few fat eigths and things, to add to my scraps. :) I put in a bunch of fabric from previous quilts and projects--dorky as it sounds, it kind of feels like a keepsake quilt. :)Katie @SwimBikeQuilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140324323541294423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-18891378150803686272009-09-28T18:30:56.127-05:002009-09-28T18:30:56.127-05:00AmandaJean - I am so behind - that I will probably...AmandaJean - I am so behind - that I will probably be right on time if you do this one again...<br /><br />But, I am not giving up and I intend to finish it...I love the way my 9-patches are turning out.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188797432417336539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-14807231999363343172009-09-28T18:13:06.940-05:002009-09-28T18:13:06.940-05:00I guess I am an overachiever because I did all my ...I guess I am an overachiever because I did all my blocks in about 2 days:) I sew at my dining room table and knew I couldn't get my sewing machine out everyday. I taught my daughter how to sew with this easy pattern and quilt along, we actually entered it in the fair. Thanks for the encouragement! I love the quilt! I also say keep the green and yellow block! That's the fun of using scraps! I'm up for another quilt along as well. Thanks for all the encouragement!OurCrazyFarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06020242859069231218noreply@blogger.com
