Quarter of Nine #6

What if You Made

A Nine Patch

 

Block...

...Then Cut It Into

 

 Four Quarters?

You could make a new block by putting it back together like this...

 ... or like this...

 ...or even like this.

This last one one is quite interesting on point.

Here's another way you could put the quarters back together.

 It looks good on point too.

All of these blocks can be used to make Disappearing Nine Patch quilts (originally designed by Nancy Brenan Daniel). You've probably already seen one or two.

Is a Nine Patch block the only block you can do this with?

Of course not! Tomorrow I'll show you what happens when you cut a Shoo Fly block into quarters.
