Adorable !!! Anxious for you to show us how to do this..... cuz I'd like to make some, too!!! Thanks for the pictures.

I have created my potholders in stages because I plan on teaching a mini class. Now, I need to photograph, but my camera is down, but will give it a shot with my cell phone camera. Hopefully, will have time to post today since I'm off. Excited that so many like them well enough to make.

Very cute! These would make great make-ahead gifts for next Christmas. Thanks for sharing.

nstitches4u 01-16-2012 09:39 AM

Looking forward to learning how you made these.

Sew glad to see that you are going to do a tute. I made my 1st potholder but only used 1 piece of Insul-brite because when I tried two...was really, really hard to turn (I think it is called birthing). So I ripped out and did the single layer of Insul-brite and a single layer of batting...so much easier to "birth".
I can't wait to see how you did these potholders, espicially since you used 2 layers of Insul-brite. I have so many pieces of fabric that I want to use to do potholders for my friends.

Great idea. Love them.

johnniesgirl 01-16-2012 01:44 PM

I'm glad you put a picture of the back on the board too as it gave me an idea of how they were made. Hoping to see a tute though.

onaemtnest 01-16-2012 01:58 PM

So very interesting. I too join the chorus and kindly ask for Tutorial.

mommabear62 01-16-2012 02:11 PM

I agree with everyone else, they are so cute and really hope that you will please tell us how to make these. I did a google search for a 9 patch wonder but all that came up with the 9 patch. Please help us out!!!

kathyquilter34 01-16-2012 02:43 PM

Will be anxiously awaiting to see how you done them..I love to make potholders..thanks

Very classy!

jgriinke 01-16-2012 06:17 PM

Those are very cute. I agree - we need a tute on those!

craftymatt2 01-16-2012 07:23 PM

Oh i love those, thank you for sharing.

quilting in my60s 01-16-2012 07:25 PM

Is this the same technique as Broken Nine Patch or Tossed nine patch? It is were you make 9 patch cut through the middle across and top to bottom and mix up the pieces and resew.

sailsablazin 01-16-2012 07:33 PM

ooooohh! These are very nice....I am waiting for instructions also... If I made them, then I could throw away some of my old potholders (some are pretty awful looking---stained but clean).

1234Irene 01-16-2012 07:41 PM

Lol, I'm in too! Would love a toute on these! VERY nice!

HINT...cut your batting just a tad smaller than your fabrics...and cut each of those layers smaller..OR trim the batting after you sew to THIN it out!

katkat1946 01-16-2012 07:55 PM

These are great! I'm going to have to look into this block. Thanks for the post.

Jecreed 01-16-2012 08:11 PM

Super idea

kathdavis 01-17-2012 04:13 AM

Okay, tutorial is posted in new thread under "Main" labeled 9 Patch Wonder Blocks Tutorial. I guess I should have used the word Tutorial first but I didn't. I hope it all makes sense.

gmavis 01-17-2012 06:19 AM

kathdavis 01-17-2012 03:46 PM
