Blog Fodder: 9 Patch Quilts & a Giveaway


Welcome to this week's Linky Party!

The theme this week is 9 Patch Quilts.  The Quilt University’s Quilt Glossary defines 9 Patch quilts as ‘a basic division of a geometric quilt square into 9 equal squares.  Think of a tic-tac-toe grid.  Within the grid, additional divisions can take place.’ Examples of 9 Patch quilts are the Irish Chain and Disappearing 9 Patch quilts

Please enter your name and a link to your blog or a picture in Flickr.  If you don't have a blog or a Flickr account, email me (hputi01@gmail.com) a picture of your quilt and a brief write-up and I will post it on my blog page called Members' Quilts. Link up your quilts or blocks (you may enter more than once) using Mr Linky below and do visit as many of the other links as you can.  You will get some great ideas and may even find new followers and/or blogs to follow.


At the end of April 2013, all linky entries for the month will be tallied and one lucky winner will receive a charm pack of 20 (5") scrappy squares!  The monthly giveaway is open to residents within and outside the United States.

Be sure to check back each week to participate in a different quilt theme.

Your quilt entries have been added to this Pinboard. Please hop over and check them out.
