Here is the result. I think I should have put pink in it :0) ... I'm missing pink. My last scrappy quilt had a lot of pink in it so I left it out of this one on purpose. I plan to put a border, a pieced zigzag border, and another border on it.
Also, I finally started making these little 9-patches as a leader and ender project. I'd been cutting 2 inch squares since last fall - just a couple from whatever fabric I had out. It is definately more fun than just using a little scrap to sew on over and over again. Christine over at http://onceuponaquilt.blogspot.com has a really lovely 9 patch quilt in her blog header. She's started a 9 patch block swap that makes me wish I lived in Australia :0) The blocks are going to be made with reproductions and I just love that.

The photo of your Corn & Beans - it looks like a couple fabrics have a pinkish look to them. Maybe not for real but it sure looks like it. I have wanted to make a scrap quilt using this pattern. Just not enough time.
Love the quilt. I think it looks more Civil War-ish. It is going to be really beautiful when you get it done.
I love love corn and beans blocks! How gorgeous.

Thanks for your visit to my blog and your sweet compliments but now I'm tossing them right back at ya! This little quilt is fantastic! It is just oozing with charm!
I love scrap quilts and this is looking really great, with the borders on it's going to be gorgeous. I love the sound of the zig zag.
