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.
Cain and Abel
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Cain and Abel quilt block is a five patch block as it is built on a 5 X 5 square. However, it is sewn together as an uneven nine patch as the construction is easier. This quilt block is one of a series of biblical quilt blocks.
This quilt block is easy to make, containing only squares and half square triangles. I have included instructions for making four different sizes of this quilt block.
