Disappearing 9 patch....fabulous idea
I am so glad I saw this thread. It is a fabulous idea and one I have never heard of until now. When I took my first quilting class about 6 years ago, I over cut what I needed for my quilt. I have a bunch of 9 patches that I was not sure what I was going to use them for because I didn't want to do the same quilt I did the first time around. This solves that question I had in my mind......Thanks for bringing this into the forum!!!

Here is my D 9-P.
I made 2 separate 9-patch blocks
Blender #1: for block 1
Blender #2: for block 2
Blender (for the center of each of the 9-patch blocks): Cream or neutral tone on tone
Medium scale floral or print # 1 for block 1 (for the corner of the blocks)
Medium scale floral or print # 2 for block 2 (for the corners of the blocks)
After I cut the 9-P blocks...I used 2 pcs from each to make one block. Then assemble the quilt.
Large scale focus print (for the border fabric)

Google it! So much fun! I have made several now and they all look different depending on the fabric and the placement of the squares. Enjoy and it's NOT hard. I made one in an evening over the holidays for one of my daughters who recently moved away. Love from home! I hope you enjoy D9P as much as I have!

I put mine on point with sashing and added a center block because I ran out of charms. There is a thread of D9Ps in the picture gallery. They can be so different so it's worth a look.
