 BLOCKS by SIZE | 9" Quilt Blocks |
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.
Sickle
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Sickle quilt block is a simple four patch design featuring only squares and half square triangles.
This easy quilt block is a perfect choice for a beginner quilter. What you may not notice about this block at first glance, is its directional nature, which allows for all sorts of interesting block layouts for your resultant quilt, simply by rotating the block or grouping of blocks by 90 degrees. Subtle secondary designs will result when this happens.
