Graphic 9 patch

Here is an example of a quilt that was done with some 4 patches and some 9 patches. The 9 patch fabric comes from a bag of fabric that was 'bland'. However, using the principles of light and dark, a fabulous nine patch is easily made, using 4.5 inch strips (on the serger of course!).

To kick it up a notch, some nice orange fabrics was introduced. Notice that the pumpkin fabric repeats in several places. This pumpkin fabric was a fat quarter, that was cat into 6 inch finished squares. Not having the heart to discard the bits of fabric left over from the fat quarter, these made it into 6 inch finished squares with some other left over fabrics.
