June challenge: "the disappearing nine patch"
It's a real simple pattern. Start with making a big square out of nine equal sized little squares. Then cut through the big square both vertically and horizontally so you end up with four equal sized squares. Rearrange these four squares to make a different pattern. Make as many blocks as needed.
There are many various patterns possible, that's what makes it so fun.
The colors I used are very, very (candy) sweet. But I quess because it's a dollquilt it doesn't matter.
where did the nine patch go?
made this card from little bits and pieces out the wastebasket.
Hope to share more photos and progress next time!

Hello, I have just found you via Kiss Kus. It was the word 'Lekker' which attracted me. My husband is from South Africa and his family uses that expression all the time. I am glad that I have found you, your blog is truely beautiful and I will return to visit again soon.
Cheers for now,

This will not have effect in fact, that's exactly what I suppose.
