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.

Once I saw the "star" feature of this Pathways block, I just had to choose colours of a night sky.

This block is technically a four patch design, as it is created on a 4 x 4 grid. However, it is constructed as an uneven nine patch because of the size of the patches.

The block has many pieces, but none are difficult. There are squares, rectangles and the only pieced patches are flying geese units -- one of the first patches you will learn to piece as you begin your quiltmaking journey.
