Work Quilt - WIP - part one of quilt top

[schizoauthoress]

The Work Quilt was planned to be a Sixteen-Patch-and-Pinwheels, but I suck at doing 16 patch blocks, so I switched the design to what you see now.

Though I've been sewing and doing patchwork for several years, this will be my first completed quilt (the other blocks and partially finished tops were lost). I guess this is also a 'Work Quilt' because I have a lot of skills that need work, and this is a practice piece as much as anything. As long as the finished project does its duty as a blanket to keep us warm, who cares if it's not perfect, right? Learning experiences are good.

The picture you see is the first of nine 3x3 sections for the top. The finished quilt is going to be nine blocks wide by eleven blocks long. It will fit on a single bed with some extra, and maybe on a full without any hang. The binding will probably match the polka-dot corner-squares.
