Stitch Pink Block 11
Stitch Pink Block 11
Five and Nine. Five nine-patches.
That really was the reason for the name. But as often happens in life, it turns out these numbers have another meaning for me, one I didn't notice until I was writing this post. Was it simply a chance coincidence, or was there a lovelier, much-missed, voice whispering in my ear? Five and nine. 5.9. My Mom's birthday. (She was the Jersey Girl of Block 7.)
The names I give blocks and quilts always tell a story for me. Some of the quilt stories are silly, some are very personal, and yes, some quilts tell a story that could have been co-authored by Stephen King.
But enough of that, today's story is a Pink one.

Nine-patches. Have fun with them. Create a pattern with the darks, or make them all scrappy. The "bubble gum" block I made has five different nine-patches.
Where can you find all the first ten blocks? Here - Stitch Pink Archive.
Don't miss the Stitch Pink blocks showing up on Facebook and Instagram. And if you're there, we'd love it if you would post yours using #ModaStitchPink.
Have a good Sunday and I'll be back tomorrow.
