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.

Boxed Squares

Sample Quilt Layouts

The two sample quilt layouts shown below feature the Boxed Squares quilt block, both in on point settings of the blocks.

The quilt layout illustrated on the left separates the blocks with sashing strips with "cornerstones" to give an added pop of colour. The blank blocks and setting triangles offer a spot to showcase your quilting designs.

The quilt layout on the right adds large corner triangles to each block. Careful colour placement of those larger triangles gives an extra design element to the quilt as well as additional splashes of colour.
