The last flannel16 patch blocks that I made yesterday are now added to the previous ones for a total of 38. I haven't come up with a final plan for them.
I sewed the blocks from the Friday strip sets and sewed 3 more new strip sets for the batik 9 patch project.
I added 5 new blocks to the design wall and rearranged a bit. I made it one block wider and need to have 12 rows top to bottom. This first quilt will have all different blocks, one of each of the 4 alike of each combination. The other 3 blocks go into a project box for a larger quilt with duplicates in it. I'm not quite half way there so this will continue for a month or so.
I downloaded this free pattern and printed it a few years ago. I knew I wanted to use large prints for it and finally decided to make it.
These fabrics are from 2 lines by one designer, e bond. The dark skinny strip is a deep teal color and I only had a fat quarter of it so I need to find something else so I can make the rest of the blocks. I might use a Marcia Derse fabric or two because they go well with these fabrics.
Last night when I was closing the blinds on my front windows the moon was shining through the huge maple tree across the street. It was too striking to let it pass without taking a photo.

Flannel to batik to contemporary -- isn't it great to have an eclectic style?
Love the so soft looking flannels!!
Great "moon shot"--cold here this morning at 27 degrees--no River walk this morning--not with that stiff NW winds blowing too.

Lovely Sunday post today Wanda, love how you are creating your 9 Patch. And the ‘Spa Quad’ looks like a brain teaser to be created, to me.

Love your cozy flannel quilt, the glorious batik 9 Patch quilt, your adventurous new project, and the photo of the moon. It's good you pay attention!
Hugs!
I missed a few days and really did not get the gist of what was going on with the 9patches. But WOW, I love how it's coming together!
Thank you for sharing.
The 9 patch top is coming together nicely! Such beautiful colors! I love how you kicked up that downloaded pattern up a notch! Those prints you are using are fabulous!
Beautiful moon photo - it was very photogenic here but we didn’t get photos.
Oooooh, I like that Spa Quilt!
