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.

The back uses up large blue pieces, many with special meanings to me.
I've been away from the blogs for a bit, and how nice to come back to your last 3 posts! I LOVE this Streak of Lightning split 9-patch. Awesome! And your Chinese Coins is gorgeous! Perfection! And Goodnight Irene is a wonderful punch of color! Well done!
