This is a basic disappearing nine patch quilt block.

You can make this block with pre-cut 5″ squares, also called charm squares, to make the block more quickly.

How to make a disappearing nine patch block

If you like disappearing blocks check out my book Turnabout patchwork. It’s a book about slicing and turning blocks.

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.

• Order Turnabout Patchwork on Amazon.
• Order Turnabout Patchwork directly from Martingale
