Quick Disappearing 9 Patch


This is a very good pattern for a confident beginner. The popular Disappearing 9 - Patch. This is a very easy design using 9 patches arranged in a 3x3 grid then sewn together. After sewing, carefully cut vertically down the middle and then carefully cut horizontally giving you the look above. I have already separated and rotated the 4 squares into a scrappier looking pattern.



Here I've added more patch choices so I can really mix up the patterns to make it scrappier looking. Just keep making more 9 patches, cutting them down the middle sections, then keep sewing groups of 4 squares together to make your quilt the size you want.


Keep adding the patch sets and arranging them in a way that is pleasing to you.

Here is where I reached my desired size. I then decided to add a 2 1/2" white sashinh strip around the whole quilt to play with the pretty soft colors. Last I added a 5 1/2"




Here I actually have reached the size that I want. I then added a small white 2 1/2" sashing strip
