Yesterday I went into Belmont to attend a sewing workshop with Annette Packett, we were learning the 9 patch and snowball combination.
here are the beginnings of my snowballs
Marg working away at her table..
Tracee's snowball blocks
Margs snowball blocks
mine,
mu first 9 patch...very exciting!!!
these belong to the lady in front of me, she is making a quilt for her grand daughter
these belong to Lisa, love her fabrics!!
Annette made up another version with NZ fabrics she bought while on holiday.
Marg had a colour review and has changed to white on the snowballs and 9 patch, sadly that meant some unsewing!
Tracee busily working out her 9 patch combinations. We had a great day, the time passed very quickly I learned lots and now have a quilt to finish, well blocks to get finished and put into a quilt!
happy sewing.
a great combination of blocks..........

Looks like a fun day, hop to see your finished tops sometime. Love everybody's fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combo. Loving yours. Looking forward to seeing the top completed. No pressure! Lol.
ReplyDeleteLots of gorgeous colourful blocks. I have just finished a disappearing 9 patch quilt top which I will BLOG about later in the week or next week.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to see all the different combinations. Now I understand what you were doing in the post above this one! I was just looking at that pattern today, and this makes me think I should drag out my 9-patches and see what snowball colors might go with them. Thanks for the encouragement! =)
