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.

Sample Quilt Layouts

The China Doll quilt block lends itself nicely to quilts with diagonal settings.

The quilt layout featured below on the left adds large corner triangles in a variety of fabrics to each block. The colour placement of these larger triangle pieces is what gives this quilt design its interest. The sashing strips separating the blocks give an extra design element to the resultant quilt.

The quilt layout illustrated on the right also uses an on point setting of the blocks and separates them with sashing strips. The "cornerstones" in the sashing gives an additional, tiny sparkle to the separated blocks. The colourful, blank blocks offer up the perfect spot for you to showcase your quilting designs.
