Crazy Fun 9-Patch (May)

Crazy Fun 9-Patch

I am taking over this swap (for a while anyway) because the previous hostess, @ABackwoodsLife has been partially suspended, has not logged into SB for a long time, and I want to see this swap continue.

In this swap we are going to make scrappy 9-patch blocks. The block is super fun and modern, perfect for beginning quilters and experts!

There is a web tutorial here.

The specifics:

Start with 11- inch squares of fabric, this should leave you enough wiggle room to trim your block to 9-inches to send.

You will be making 2 sets of these 3-blocks-a-set. You will have 2 partners. You send each partner 1 block from each set and keep one block of each set for yourself. REPEATING TO BE CLEAR: Make two sets of three blocks. Send each partner 1 9-inch block of each set, 2 blocks total.

No holiday or religious fabric! Otherwise, fabrics are SENDER'S CHOICE!

No single surround centers. In other words - when finished each block should contain 3 pieces of each fabric. If you have any questions, ask away. :-)

If you receive 2 crazy nine patch quilt blocks from your partner you must rate a 5.

You must have a 4.98 rating to join. No unexplained 3's or unresolved 1's. Newbies are allowed with filled out profiles.

I will cover flakers, but you will need to give the flaker a 1 rating.
