9 patch block designs

9P in Play 51, 52 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting design, pretty fabric choices.

I love the second design … totally different to anything I have ever seen anywhere.

9P Night Vision 23, 24 from Virtual Quilter

I haven’t quite finished my first coffee of the day, and it took me a couple of minutes to work out what was wrong with the design above. Can you see it?

It took a while for me to realize when I started this project file that the corners of each Nine Patch block looked better if they were a paler shade of green.

Answer to the question above … the corner blocks contain a mis-coloured piece, even when they are not on the side.

9P Pretties from EQ5 15, 16 from Virtual Quilter

Today’s designs come from a project file started in Electric Quilt 5 …. I am now using EQ8.

Most of the blocks came from the EQ library, but there are a few of the original blocks I was adding back then. Those blocks had been scribbled onto paper, and transferred to graph paper, but still with pencils. Now I draw new ideas in EQ8, though I still scribble some onto paper if I have an idea when the computer is not close by.

Most of the quilt designs in the project have a mixture of traditional blocks and my own ...

Purple Haze 17, 18 from Virtual Quilter

The 9 Patch blocks are not as complicated as they look … especially the outer with 8 of the 9 squares just the background fabric.

I love the second design, and it has a lot of plain squares scattered all over the design.

Red and White Patches 5, 6 from Virtual Quilter

The colour combination in this project file will always look good … with the block designs hopefully adding to the effect.

I think I like the second design best, though that opinion could change after a coffee, or tomorrow morning when I open up to add another couple of quilt designs.

Red and White Quilts 49, 50 from Virtual Quilter

I like it … lots of room for quilting!

Big question … red or white thread? Or a mixture?

Design number 50 in the project file, but it is one short of 50 blocks.

9P Night Vision 19, 20 from Virtual Quilter

In the design above the darker section of the blocks could stand by itself with blank corners, but one night I woke up with the idea that the blank corners of the block could become an additional design element. Usually when I have ideas in the middle of the night they escape before morning, but this one was still in my head when daylight came so i turned on the computer and started drawing 9P blocks with empty corners, and then some ideas for the corners which would form a secondary design.

Then I had to mix up the centre ...

10 Plus Mods 17, 18 from Virtual Quilter

Not my favourite colours, but I love the design with all nine patch blocks.

Love the second one more though.

Blocks of Green 9, 10 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting and I like it.

The blocks look rather complicated, but if broken down into nine small squares, some of them whole squares, they are not quite as complicated as they look.

The second design is also interesting, but not as interesting as the first.
