Disappearing nine square quilt

 This is the second quilt I've ever made. I use a disappearing nine square pattern. I quilted the layers together with a geometric pattern. I practiced quilting making stroller/Walker caddies. 

This is what I started with,

I sewed them together.

Cut them in half vertically and horizontally.

Rotated the upper right and lower left square 180°.

Then sewed them together, I repeated this process many times then arranged the pieces on the floor, so I can place the squares where I wanted them according to color. Then I sewed them together.

Next I quilted the top to the batting. 

Then I sewed the backing to the quilt, I make the backing of my quilts larger than the top, so I can wrap the edge around the top, I think this makes the quilts look put together, and it is simpler.

This is the backing. I used matching fabrics to make the squares, and everything looks amazing. I saw a quilting trick after I finished this quilt that suggests you lay the seems open when you are sewing, and the fabric should lay flatter. Another benefit of using this method would be not having to worry about sewing seems in opposite direction. I intend on using this method next time I sew a quilt.
