Love the links. I am making a few D9P Xmas table runners right now.

I'm sure I've seen it before just didn't know what it was called. Looks different in a whole quilt rather than just a block.
Baysidegal ~ will you post a pic of your table runners. I'd like to see that too.

I am not "fussy" about the exact size. I am thinking "standard" I don't remember those sizes but do know where I have them.
I was thinking my blocks would be 4 &1/2 so that would make the finished block about 12 I have a few more replies to look at. I am so excited that I got answers. I might have to just stay inside and sew!!

I sort of hate to admit this but I have a hard time figuring out how to use some of those charts. I want 11 different colors I guess I could maybe figure it out and then divide by 11. OR I could ask my genius at math grandson to help me!!

Here is a D9P that I made using dog fabric. They are fun to make and rearranging the fabric is everyone's personal choice.

perfect! of course, i would or could mix up all the squares, except the black center one..i would have that one in the center of all the blocks..you get that black popping out in the quilt, which to me, would look awesome!

love your fabrics too! Thanks for sharing!
