9 patches & Chookshed Stitchers Challenge

 Yesterday saw me making week 3 blocks for the tiny 9 patch challenge.

teeny size & ....
.... the slightly larger size.

Number 2 is the number for this months Chookshed Stitchers Challenge. Luckily there is an extra day this month as my number 2 is Schoolgirl Sampler. :) :). I started this 3-4 years ago & faithfully made my 4" blocks every week along with the half square triangles needed in one of the borders. This is where i left it.....
......as i moved house right in the middle of the 12 weeks that Kathleen Tracy had given us to make the quilt. I lost interest after that. Several times over he last years i have told myself "get back to it" No i have to do it since it's on my list. So back to making 3" blocks, an applique centre & more half square triangles. I really hope i have a quilt top by months end. 

Happy Stitching,
