I am a plastic surgeon in Little Rock, AR. I used to "suture for a living", I continue "to live to sew". These days most of my sewing is piecing quilts. I love the patterns and interplay of the fabric color. I would like to explore writing about medical/surgical topics as well as sewing/quilting topics. I will do my best to make sure both are represented accurately as I share with both colleagues and the general public.
I made this quilt for my friend Amy who at the time was a neighbor. I forgot to put a label on the back of this one when I gave it to her, but I think it was made in 1995. I added a label to the back when she loaned it to me for photos.
It is a double nine-patch, machine pieced and hand quilted. It is 51 in X 70 in.
This photo shows off my hand quilting. 
This photo and the next show off some of the fabrics.

I love nine patches - last weekend I made some double nine patch pincushions cutting 1" strips for the small nine patches. They finished at 1/2" each! It's hard to get a straight seam when they're that small but it was fun trying. Love the quilt - blessings, marlene
