Zebra Quilter: April 1997

I've always really liked 9-patches, they are easy to cut and make and yet versatile. I made this little quilt for Halle, George and Tanya's first child, and Steve's God daughter.

This quilt was a present to me from my friends in Atlanta Intown Quilters. We took turns getting a group quilt where individual members contributed blocks. When it was my turn, I asked for blocks using bright fabrics. I didn't specify a size or a pattern, just asked that no embellishments be used. I put the blocks together framing each with white and black fabric and adding lots of other bright fabrics from my stash. I hand-quilted it using perle cotton with patterns of the fabric and the blocks as my guide.
The quilt hangs on the wall in our living room so I get to see and enjoy it every day. It is extra special because of the care my friends took to make the blocks especially for me.
