You can also use the same idea for a 9 patch, just sew 3 strips together and change from light, dark, light ..... to
dark, light, dark.

janeknapp, what program do you use to make the diagrams for the 4 patch? They are so nice and show what you mean so clearly. Just wondering if I have something like that and just don't know it. LOL
