Disappearing 9 patch tutorials

I made one in 2004 after reading about it here. It is a fun pattern that changes with the block layout.

Thanks. This is very interesting. Gen

Looks like a good book Pati, I will have to see if we have that at the local shop. Easy is looking better and better to me these days :-) Lisa

That's the first time I've ever seen anything on a disappearing nine patch and I think might try it myself.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. I'm thinking I might make another one or two. I have 2 two-year-old grandsons that don't have big boy quilts yet.

I've made a number of disappearing 9 patches out of Baseball Swap squares for our guild's charity projects. If you use novelty / I-spy type prints for the corners of the 9 patches, you get a fun, fast quilt for kids. They were tested out by a friend's two four year olds (his and hers, not twins

The first link mentions Karin Hellaby and her book. She is the owner of my LQS and I can recommend 'Magic Pillows, Hidden Quilts' - its what I have used for the Quillows I've made so far. NAYY - just shop there - and their beginners classes have a lot to answer for!!

My Quilt of Valor Bee just made one of these. We call it Nine Patch Shuffle. I made up that name because I did not know a name. I'd just seen a picture of one, here at RCTQ I think. Ours has a variety of patriotic prints in pairs, along with four wow and one red square in each block. It is a stunning quilt. We plan to use the method again. I am sharing the tutorials with my group. Thanks to Lisa and all who contributed to the thread.
