Linking up my hand pieced flimsy with the Hand Pieced Quilt Along! Head on over and check out some awesome hand pieced quilts. A big thank you to Patty from Elmstreetquilts.com and Kristin from Simple, Handmade. Everyday.
Edited: I made 2 of each of the blocks to get 18 blocks for this setting. I used 9 3/4 squares cut twice on the diagonal for the setting triangles and 5 1/8 squares cut once on the diagonal for the corners. For the 1.5 inch sashing rows - I think I had 2 at 20 inches, 2 at 33 inches and one at 40 inches. The quilt measures about 28.5x39. This is pressed and hanging on the wall. I need to add a wee little white piece to the bottom right hand side to square it up then time to pin for hand quilting.

Very pretty quilt top. The blues are so nice. You made more than nine blocks, which is amazing.
That is really really awesome Deb! Great job!
Yes, I made two of each block to get 18 blocks for this setting. I knew I wanted mine a bit bigger than the 9 blocks.
Thanks Kathy!
This is so lovely--all hand-pieced--how wonderfully soft those seams must lie. Beautiful job on this one hugs,Julierose
Looks beautiful! Great job!!
Very good job, hand quilting and hand sewing is time consuming, but rewarding. I applaud you for taking on this project
Your quilt top looks beautiful! I'm glad you enjoyed hand piecing so much you made extra blocks! Thanks for linking up to the Hand Pieced QAL.
I've been looking forward to seeing these blocks pieced and I'm not disappointed.
I love your setting! And color choices. Just all of it! Thanks for being a part of the QAL!
I love it!
