Scrub Top 9 Patch

My daughter is a wonderful nurse.  Loves her job and the patients.  She began cleaning out scrub tops that were worn out and stained and asked if we could make a quilt out of the backs.  Here are some 9 patch blocks with another 9 patch in the center.  The problem is that some of the fabrics are more stretchy than others.  These are just laid out here and we still have the sewing to do but I think it will be a cheerful and usable quilt for her.  The  cut blocks each are 6" square and with the seams and strips, it will be a nice size.  We are trying to use up as many of the scrub tops as possible.  Some are faded from wear but still sturdy.  The back will be pretty much like the front, maybe with just the large 9 patch blocks and not the smaller one.  So, this is what I have been up to lately.
