This last quilt top for August was pressed and photographed yesterday morning. It is 39.5" x 61.5". When I started making the three inch 9 patches I had no quilt in mind. I had been thinking about another quilt with the Economy block with more of the 90s florals and I wanted to add white and black to a quilt. All of the ideas came together to make these 40 blocks. I was happy to find another white with black print in my stash to use for sashing.
I ended up cutting 15 floral fabrics for the large triangle corners of the blocks.
I also ended up cutting a few more 1.5" squares for the 9 patches to add a little more bright color to the quilt.
Last night I started looking for backing fabric for it. I will need a little less than 2 yards. There is enough of each of these 4 fabrics. I probably have others that I could consider but I'd be happy to use one of these.
I'll do my monthly recap tomorrow.
