You’ve probably seen lots of disappearing nine patch blocks, I’ve made a few myself. But what about double disappearing nine patch blocks?
You’ll find all the double disappearing nine patch blocks on the photo in Turnabout patchwork.
So you can see all the variations in a real project we’re joined by Sherry of Powered by Quilting, Bobbi of Snowy Days Quilting, Anja of anjaquilts, Mania of Mania for Quilts, Sandra of Textile Time Travels and Anjeanette of Anjeanette Klinder.
These fantastic quilt designers and quilters have made projects starting with one nine patch block, slicing it and rearranging it into different blocks and quilt layouts. Don’t forget to check their blogs to see their great work as well as read their experience with my book.

Order my book Turnabout Patchwork
“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.
