Entry number 3.....
I am really loving this "getting things done that you meant to finish" club! Otherwise known as the Charming Girls Quilt Club! I was worried that I had bitten off more than I could chew when I decided to do not one, but 2 quilts with the tops not even finished! But today is the 19th, and I'll take 2 days to pin and then haul the monster sewing machine up and knock out these tops with a simple meander stitch on both
My finished 9 patch quilt using swap blocks from myself and Carol. I l-o-v-e this quilt! Sorry but that red is just fabulous...good choice Wendy! I copied Wendy as she used red first. I almost switched to cheddar, but the red just won out!
I think either next month or the following one I'll make my quilt using the Paducah 9 patch blocks we also swapped. Hope you like it.

Beautiful! I like the red background, too. It really looks great against your blocks. Congratulations on getting it finished!
GORGEOUS quilt. Love it.
Last line of your post reads "hope you like it" I think I can speak to all who come to your blog and see it...WE LOVE IT! I must agree that the RED is far better than a cheddar. (it matches my home)
OMG I love "our" quilt! The red is just awesome. I think I'll be using red too...why mess with something so wonderful!
No doubt about it. The red was a good choice. I would love to make a quilt like this.
PERFECT
Love the red
You are right, the red really sings in this top. It was an excellent choice, thanks for sharing the finished top.
Judy I love your quilt. Wendy knows how to pick the colors doesnt she? But you just cant go wrong with RED!!
This quilt is absolutely fabulous, Judy! Just love it. Way to go on the finish - I really want to make this one. Did you use a mottled red? Its really great.
I love this sooooooo much! The red background is perfect, just perfect.
The RED QUILT, love it, glad you didn't use cheddar, although I do enjoy a good cheddar, tee hee. Really a gorgeous quilt, Judy!
I'm glad you and Carol liked Wendy's and my quilt so much that you chose to swap blocks too. I remember how excited Wendy was when I asked her to swap with me - swapping those blocks with her is a memory that will stay with me forever.
I opted to use a bubblegum pink as my alternate blocks and quite happy with the results, too.
Yours is awesome!
This is so awesome! Isn't this quilt club (as my grandkids say) the bomb?
I'm so glad you went with the red, it's really a stunning quilt. I love mine so much. A local quilt group also want to make one the same. Darlene and I have so many good memories with this quilt.
Your quilt is just beautiful Judy -but then again all your quilts are. Love the red.
Love, love, love your nine patch quilt the colours are just soooo scrummy!!
It is just gorgeous, and I am glad you used the red, it just pulled it altogether and is gorgeous.
Wonderful quilt!
WOW!!!!!! I just love it!!! Your 9 patch is absolutely GORGEOUS!
It's LOVELY, and the red is just the perfect touch! Way to get those projects finished!
