So many cosy pictures again - always cheers me up to see your posts. Hope you had a lovely New Year's Day! Looking forward to your Dorothy quilt pattern. I've always loved the Economy blocks, but found them too busy at times - love how you paired them with the nine-patch blocks. So, so pretty! Enjoy the start of 2022 dear friend!

I just purchased some Windy days fat quarters...was rolling through internet for cute ideas for a quilt. I love yours with the 9 patches. Would love to know the size of your blocks, please. It's just the right quilt for my fabric! TIA
