Happy Pink Saturday

Well, I'm not posting pink or holiday just yet.  I have this quilt I'm working on for my grandson that I'd like to show you.  It's the Disappearing 9 Patch and very easy, just time consuming.   You sew the first 9 squares together like so:

Then you cut these into quarters
then the quarters are turned to make a new pattern and sewn together like so:

It's really a fun one and you can do so much with it.  Using multiple fabrics, using only three colors, childrens fabrics are adorable.    This is taking my time right now as it's for my grandson for Christmas and I have to have it done in time.  I also have one that I've made for my granddaughter and her's needs quilting, so I'll be busy until they're done.    Hope every has a wonderful Pink Saturday and be sure to stop by Beverly's to visit all the other bloggers at How Sweet The Sound .  There are some absolutely wonderful blogs, be sure and swing by. 

Have a safe week end all and hope you had had a great Thanksgiving!

Happy Pink Saturday Candi Sweetie...
You are definitely in the pink, getting your Christmas done. I love this pattern. It looks like one maybe even someone with no experience like me (maybe?) could do? Just beautiful sweetie. I thank you for sharing and I can't wait to see the one you have made for the grand daughter.

I so admire the lucky ones who can quilt... your Grandson's quilt is lovely! I recently learned that we have my daughter's great-great-grandmothers quilt stored away (it never finished!)... such treasures! :) mercedes
