You Can Make
Quarter-Of-Nine Block Quilts
Starting With Churn Dash Blocks
The last time I looked, EQ6 listed 57 Nine Patch blocks. Churn Dash is one of them, because it was designed on a Nine Patch grid.
What if you were to make a Churn Dash block and then cut it into 4 quarters?
You would have 4 identical units that you could sew together, making entirely new blocks, all sorts of ways.
I call blocks made this way Quarter-Of-Nine blocks.
I designed a few quilts using this method to give you an idea of what is possible if you start with Churn Dash blocks.
Quarter-Of-Nine blocks are easy to make. And the designs you can make using them are easy too; but they don't look it.
