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.
Six Windows of Sunshine
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Six Windows of Sunshine quilt block was new to me. I liked it for its simple shapes and it made me think of a blazing sun coming through a window pane. For that reason, I chose these colours, which gave me a "southwestern" feel to the block.
Squares, half square triangles and a few flying geese patches are the units used to make this striking four patch quilt block. Oh, and the centre of the block features the square in a square patch. All in all, this block is a great learning tool in your quiltmaking journey.
