Is learning a new skill one of your new year resolutions. You’re in luck! Today we have a really basic beginner tutorial for a nine patch quilt block with precuts.
A nine patch was the first block I attempted though at the time I cut my own 5″ squares.
Quilting with pre-cuts is quick and easy and if you’re starting it certainly helps.

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.
Buy individual chapters of my book
Now that my publisher is going out of business I have bought the rights to publish my book. Now you can download individual chapters. Each digital download is a bundle with 4 quilt patterns in it.
As well as the instructions and fabric needs to make the blocks you’ll find a section on quiltmaking basics at the end of the pattern that discusses:
- Tools
- Squaring up blocks
- Borders
- Assembly and quilting
- Binding
See all the quilts in the book in a real life project

I so appreciated your article on using pre-cuts for quilting.
But may I say that My heart goes out to you all in Australia. I can’t imagine the devestation you are experiencing. Just to let you know, here in Canada, our prayers are with you.
