 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.
Mother's Own
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Mother's Own quilt block is a perfect choice for a quilt to celebrate Mother's Day. It is an easy five patch block constructed using only squares and rectangles.
"Ah ha!" you say. There are triangles used to make the star in the centre. Well ... yes ... but they are sewn using the "sew and flip" method which is so popular with quilters. No triangles are used. What could be easier?
The block is sewn as an uneven nine patch, rather than in five rows of five -- (just an easier method, in my view).
