Quilt-a-thon: Comfort by the 9's pattern

The October 13, 2007 Quilt-a-thon is quickly approaching, and here are some examples of quilts made with the Comfort by the 9's pattern. Ellen has quilted and bound this quilt (quilt top piecer unknown). If you click on the quilt, you should be able to see some of the details of the quilting.













Paul quilted and bound this top made by Patty from an Easton quilt-a-thon. For quilting, Paul used a walking foot and selected different stitches on his sewing machine, instead of just a simple stitch-in-the-ditch. There are also some quilting lines on the diagonals, and a variagated thread was used to add some interest to the stitching.














Here is a second quilt that Ellen quilted and bound, again using the Comfort by the 9's pattern (Quilt top piecer unknown). The next picture shows the flannel back for this quilt. Ellen took scraps from some of the previous comfort quilts she had sandwidched and quilted, and put those scraps together to make a flannel back. What a wonderful collage of color. This would even make a great comfort quilt on the front of the quilt.
