That's too funny. I wanted to do a 9" card trick and could only find a 12" pattern. Finally found one and love the way it turned out. I decided to try different quilt blocks just to see if I could do them, and I think my project just might turn into a sampler quilt. I really do wish I had chosen to make 12 inch blocks. There are a lot more patterns for those than the nine. I'm fairly new to quilting also and not good at converting patterns.
