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.
Crossed Roads to Oklahoma - Variation
Free Quilt Block Pattern
This Crossed Roads to Oklahoma - Variation quilt block is done using only three colours, rather than the four colour version currently on this website. Each block is technically an eight patch design, but I prefer to sew the block as an uneven nine patch, just because I like things to be easier to sew, and this works better for me.
Although this block seems to be difficult, it is really not -- using only simple patches in its design. With careful stitching of your quarter inch seam allowance, this will go together in no time. You will be using only squares, rectangles, half square triangles and flying geese patches -- all ones you learn when you first start your quiltmaking journey. Enjoy!
