with all of my leftover crafting fabric. It is called the "Disappearing Nine Patch" pattern.
I don't have a long arm quilting machine or a frame to hand quilt and I wanted my quilt to look nice,
so I had a lady quilt it for me. She did an awesome job, I am so proud of the finished quilt.
I told her to use a light tan backing with some print in case I wanted to reverse the quilt and a chocolate border. I also told her to use whatever design that she would like for the quilting pattern,
she chose a flowered design and it is beautiful.
Now for pictures of my finished scrappy quilt.

| Reminds me of Joseph's Coat of many colors |

| Love the color or the backing |

| Each square was a memory of something I had crafted, bonnets to a table runner, to doll dresses. |

| My favorite quilt squares made from civil war reproduction fabric, from my table runner class |

| Love the flowered quilting design |

| So very proud of my very first quilt! |
