split 9-patch

I joined in on Bonnie Hunter's split 9-patch project of 2013. It is made with 2 1/2 inch cut squares and half-square triangles. I used up many of my pre-cut squares, but there are many more in the bin.

The block finishes 6 inches. The border is 9-patches with just dark fabrics.
I love streak of lightning sets and it works well for this quilt.
Machine quilted by Suzette Fisher.

The back uses up large blue pieces, many with special meanings to me.

This is really cool creativity with the quilt design. I really love your blog. You always come up with new ideas. In fact, I’ve seen something like that after a long time.

Thanks!
