This is the 3rd section of the Red Disappearing 9-Patch. Those white squares are labels I pinned on the blocks to help me order them on the wall. I have the first two sections sewn together and hanging on my shelves.
As I look at the top hanging, it seems to give off a different vibe that many of my other quilts. This seems like a summer quilt – lightweight & cool. It reconfirms my desire to back it using more shirting fabric. Once I get the green one done, I’ll pull the shirts back out and piece backs for all three Disappearing 9-patches — although I may have enough backing fabric left from my DWR to do one back.
The quilting will be simple – 3 lines of cross hatching through the blocks going both ways – in red thread.

Lovely scrap quilt! I love using shirtings.
It’s going together fast! I love making D9P’s. It’s been way too long since I made one.
