Ninepatch Pinwheel Quilt #4

Seebe




To design Seebe I started with a ninepatch grid.
Then I asked:

What if I replaced some of the squares in the ninepatch block with half-square triangles?

What if I did 2 color versions of the ninepatch block?

What if I used 2 of each ninepatch block to make a ninepatch pinwheel block?

What if I use this block in the corners of my quilt?

What if I use the 2 ninepatch blocks to make a different ninepatch pinwheel block?

What if I use this second block on the sides of my quilt?

If I do, then the result is the quilt that started this post.


But now I want to explore other possibilities.

What if I change the colors of the first ninepatch pinwheel block and then simply repeat it?

Then the result is this quilt.

What if I change the colors of the second ninepatch pinwheel block and combine 2 at a time rotated 180 degrees?

Then I get this quilt.

What if I change the colors of the ninepatch pinwheel block and get a third version?

What if I then repeat this new block?

Then I get this quilt.










I have to admit. I like playing with ninepatch pinwheel blocks. I'll probably do another one tomorrow.
