I use Eleanor Burns Tossed 9 patch pattern. It calls for 9 - 5 inch blocks sewn like a 9 patch but with the same color as the center block on each of them. Then cut in half one direction and then the other.

Here is a copy of mine. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-114352-1.htm

You can do a lot with these! You can use your focus fabric in the 4 corners, then white squares on the side pieces with a solid color in the center. When it is cut and swapped it looks like sashing and cornerstones. It's pretty cool.

Make sure to put pictures in the outer 4 corners and should work out. Those blocks don't get cut

I mark the 9-patch using a large ruler and marking the center at the outer edges then I turn the ruler and line up to cut with a rotary cutter. After cutting both directions, I turn 2 opposite new blocks 180 deg. to forn a D9P.

After cutting both directions, I turn 2 opposite new blocks 180 deg. to forn a D9P. This is a current project. I am doing half the blocks with the dark pieces in the corners and center and half with the light. This is a Christmas present for a friend. When it is complete, I will post the finished quilt.

Thanks
These are the clearest instructions I've seen

I am doing mine as a scrap quilt, holding the center constant for every block. It's far from finished. I took the picture because a friend wanted to get an idea of how a scrap D9P might look.

This is pretty cool! I'm going to do a d9p for someone's quince 3 weeks away and want to integrate something different, and I think this may just do the trick.
