I have just finished about 30 blocks using 30's reproduction fabrics with white Kona cotton in a 6.5 inch 9 patch block. I used Bonnie Hunter's idea of making leaders and enders, and now I have enough for a quilt while making a string quilt. I want to put these 9 patches on the diagonal, but can't think of what to do with it. Suggestions would be appreciate or even pictures.

Can you take a photo of one of your blocks?? Are all your blocks with the repro fabric on the outside 5 while the Kona is in the 4 sides?? I had a design with 9 patch blocks setting on point with that soft reproduction green as the setting triangle. Now I can find it. Sorry.

There was just a nice 9patch on point posted here a day or two ago. I tried to copy the link but it didn't work. Try the search, sorry.

Check Bonnie site for Split Nine Patch quilt pattern. I think she has a picture of hers on her blog. http:// www.quiltville.blogspot.ca

ManiacQuilter2 I took a picture of some of my blocks. When I viewed them, they came out small. Don't know what I did different this time. Anyway, you can sort of get the idea of my blocks.

Also on Bonnie Hunter's site is a free design called Chunky Churndash. You would just put hourglass blocks in between your 9-patches and voila!
