I'm a retired teacher. The sewing teacher at the high school I taught used the 9 patch. I taught quilting for a while at a local Sew n' Vach shop & used the "More Quilts for Baby" by Ursela Reikes book. I would have each student pick a pattern to make either a baby quilt of lap throw.

The class will be six weeks, meeting once a week, and cover all aspects of quilting, from fabric selection through binding and labels.

Thanks for your ideas!
