Double Nine Patch Quilt

 
This is my first attempt at a very traditional quilt and I am in love with it! I used about half a Moda jelly roll to make this lap sized quilt. It is perfect for snuggling in and it is going to be a gift for my husband's grandmother. I hope she loves it too.







The one big learning I had while doing this quilt is that if you have a Viking Sapphire sewing machine and you are free motion quilting it is apparently VERY important to leave your thread in the horizontal position. I broke easily 8 needles trying to figure that one out...
