Yoda's Memory Squishy Quilt

I kept fondling all those pretty squares that some rctq-ers sent me
when Yoda died. I've said it
before, but I was just so touched by that gesture. I really wanted to
do something special with
those little squares.
So I took them and made a twin-sized quilt top. Very simple, kind of a
nine-patch-type thing with
squares set on point. I used every single one of those squishies.
It's not quilted yet, and I am *not* a good picture-taker, but I do
want to show it to you.
I hope you guys can spot your squishies, and know that I just love
this quilt. It's going to
be my new favorite couch comfort-quilt.

Thanks again.

That is so lovely Sherry. I had forgotten how 'on point' changes the whole
look of the quilt. The 9 patches make a great border and give it a bit of
zing.

Well done.

Thank you so much. I truly enjoyed every minute of making that quilt.
It was so
easy it just fell together. I know it's a simple one, but I am just
goofily proud
of it. It will look much better when it is quilted. I was thinking
maybe just
diagonal straight lines that won't overwhelm the squares themselves,
or
crosshatch or something like that.

Sherry

How gorgeous! I just love the 9-patch border, makes my fingers itchy
:-)

It's lovely Sherry. Well done you. I agree with Roberta, those
9-patches are a great border for you un-fussy centre. Lovely.

Very classy; old-fashioned, but contemporary and timeless!

Sometimes I forget just how lovely "simple" can be, but this is a perfect
example. It's a beautiful quilt, Sherry, made more so by the love of your
friends and your memories of Yoda. Thanks for sharing.

That is stunning. I can't believe how that 9 patch border set
the field off. Can't wait to see it quilted. Great work.

Oh, Sherry, it's lovely!!!!! You did such a great job of design and
piecing. What a beauty. I hope when you snuggle in at night with it,
it will bring you tons of fond memories of Yoda and your many friends
here. It brightened my day so much to see your quilt and to read your
post. Well done! Donna
