Love those oldies in a nine patch exchange.
Gillian participated in a
Nine Patch Exchange a few years ago thru Cock a doodle Quilts, a local quilt shop that unfortunately no longer exists.
Somehow Gillian acquired far more blocks than any other participant, I know this because I remember quilting another nine patch quilt for Gillian a few years ago. I will dig up those pictures and blog about it at a later date.
This quilt was simply quilted with straight lines.
Nine patch exchanges are organized amongst a group of quilters over a long period of time. In the end the entire group should have and equal number of identical nine patch blocks. Exchanges are a lot of fun and they get rid of last bits of your stash.
I have been the organizer of a few exchanges, someday I will blog about the process and the results of them.

Primitive Logs for Quilt Canada
I was so thrilled to have one of my quilts "Primitive Log Cabin" be chosen as a workshop for Quilt Canada 2016 https://www.canadianquilter.com/events/quilt-canada-2016.php that I decided I would make a more modern version of it.
A few weeks ago I mentioned that I would be blogging about my "modern" primitive log cabin quilt.
I found a little time to start cutting and sewing for myself this past weekend. This mess in the picture to the left quickly turned into a few blocks.
I decided to mix it up and not work in rounds of one fabric at a time like my original quilt.
I think I will try adding some different size and shapes of blocks into the mix. Stay posted there is more to cmd
