Hand Dye Quilt


My dyeing class is fast approaching and I want to have a quilt made up with my hand-dyes to show the participants. So today I spent a happy couple of hours making nine patch blocks from half a dozen colours and solid white.

 
Then I held my breath and cut each block into quarters. Phew! that wasn't too bad. Now I just have to arrange them. Here are half of the blocks. I think it's going to take a bit of fiddling til I'm satisfied!

    your idea of cutting up 9 patches is so simple but very effective
