There is no question that 12" quilt blocks are the most commonly used. But at times, you want to make a block that is a little smaller and uses easy math. Enter the 9 inch block -- not too big and not too small, but just fits the bill.

Folded Corners

Sample Quilt Layouts

Both sample quilt layouts illustrated using the Folded Corners quilt block feature an on point layout with blank blocks included to showcase your quilting skills. Sashing separates the blocks on one of the quilts to feature some additional interest. Depending on your design choices, two very different quilts are the result.
