    I am not sure what you are asking. Most confusing.

    She wants to know if there is a way to do quilt as you go for a nine patch block.

    GourmetQuilter has a wonderful youtube video on quilt as you go method. (actually she has 2) One is for making the block and while she doesn't use the 9-patch, you can use ANY block you want. The second is how to put the blocks together with sashing. I plan to use her tute.

    i found on line at the u tube apple turn over place I am just learning and do not use rotary cutter found a singer 221
    that does good sewing of squares is great have not tried to quilt, on it the tut I looked at does the whole square quilt

    I am more confused, too. It would help if you would put in some periods to make your post more readable.

    Can you send us a link to the YouTube video you are talking about? The Singer 221 is a great machine for piecing, and you can also quilt your blocks with it.

    If you will just take it one step at a time as you follow the tutorial I think you will do just fine!

    There are many styles of quilt as you go. So if one doesn't feel comfortable to you, try a different method until you find " the one " that works best for you.

    I'm currently in the process of determining which one I like best. Have not reached a conclusion yet.

    do a search in Yahoo for Quilt as you Go and you will find lots of tutorials and videos on that. making nine patch blocks can be done in a strip method or just cutting squares and sewing those together. it really should be easy but pictures do help. good luck!!
