Need pattern suggestions..Minnie Mouse theme

I vote for the DP9 patch too. It would really showcase the Minnie... to make her the outside (and thus ) the larger squares. Good luck and please show us your quilt when you finish.

I think the main square on a D9P is/are the corner squares of the 9 patch. They are the squares that aren't cut At all when you cut the 9 patch apart. I'm working on one right
Now and I put my most important print and biggest print on the corners. I'm working with Dogwood Trails fabric.

By the way, I love your fabric, we are going to see Mickey and Minnie this summer-- my first trip to Disneyworld, with all the grandkids! I'll want to find that fabric after our trip!

Thanks Jean...I can picture that now. I might do one and see how I like it. Could be my answer!

I was looking for something with bigger Minnies on it, but this is all I could find. Well there was one other but it had stripes up and down it and far to busy. D9P is probably the size I need to use this anyway. Make 5" "charm pak" squares.

Coffeebreak - Give this a try! Google "tumbler block quilts" then click on images on the left of the page. Lots of photos of tumbler quilts will come up on the screen. You might get some ideas looking at all of those quilts. I use this all the time and have come up with lots of great ideas for quilts. When I see something I import a picture to I-photo so I can save pictures of the ideas I like. I have quite a folder of "Ideas for Quilts" in I-photo. It's so wonderful to be able to refer to it when I need an idea.
