Then traditionally the square is the same size as the 9patch square.
But that can vary. You can see the different secondary patterns (the bowties) that emerge when you use smaller snowballs with the 9Patch block, or when you switch the coloring of the 9patch.

FYI - the measurements are a 9" FINISHED nine-patch block. The snowballs are 1",2" & 3" FINISHED.

(remember - the actual cut squares would be 1.5", 2.5" & 3.5")
That is so great to see the different patterns you cab make!!!! Thank you....will certainly keep that as a special reference!
