 Nine Patch | Uneven Nine Patch |
The Uneven Nine Patch style of quilt block is so named because not all of the nine individual patches are the same size as is the case in a regular nine patch quilt block. This style of quilt block is often used in 10" quilt block to make the math easier, but you will find this construction method in many other quilt blocks as well.
Baton Rouge Square
Free Quilt Block Pattern
With a name like Baton Rouge Square, well I just had to throw some red into the block. In fact, I made it the background colour.
This five patch quilt block is a simple one to make as it contains only half square triangles and squares. Even though it is technically a five patch design, it is sewn as an uneven nine patch for ease in construction.
This quilt block is also a nice deviation from the regular 12" blocks that are so frequently seen. However, many quilters like the math in the 10" type of quilt blocks.
