The other nine



Well I looked everywhere yesterday. I was getting desparate...after all I could not find nine finished sewn together needle turned appliqued squares...did I say I spent $60 JUST acquiring the pattern? Needless to say I had to find it. I finally found it in a spare drawer along with a couple of the items I could not find for the quilt show last week...duh...so here are the first nine squares sewn together....only tomatoes and sweet pea is left to do....I might even get this one quilted one day....

I also took closeups of two of my favorite squares...the peaches...did I say I love peaches...gorgeous color and delicious to eat....

And the grapes block...that one was a toughy....the grapes kept moving around...of course I pinned them all down at once....not wanting to use the overlay OVER and OVER and OVER everytime I wanted to add one little grape....does it match the original pattern? I dont know and I dont care.....

Deee-Lish-ous. I love fruit blocks, and grapes may be my fav too. I also like the way to put them on '4-squares'.
