THE BASICS
The quilt is simply an Uneven Nine Patch block alternating with a plain block. Each block finishes at 6″ (6.5″ unfinished). You can see that more clearly in the diagram below.
The center square on the nine patches is 3″ finished and the corners are 1.5″ finished.
Fabric requirements:
2 5/8 yards of background fabric
Approximately 1 yard of print scraps or 5 FQs (I used a mix of 36 different prints)
The layout of the quilt is 9 x 11 blocks.
CUTTING
Here are the rotary cutting dimensions for the Uneven Nine Patch block (from EQ8). This is for ONE block.
You will also need 49-6.5″ x 6.5″ white (background) blocks.
TIP: Use the same background fabric in the Nine Patch blocks as in the alternating (plain) blocks. That way you can’t see where the blocks begin and end.
STRIP PIECING CONSTRUCTION
I constructed the blocks using strip piecing–meaning that I sewed together a strip of a 2″ x WOF (width of fabric) of a print, to a 3.5″ x WOF strip of white, to another 2″ x WOF of print. Then I subcut them every 2″. That creates the top and bottom row of the nine patch. You will need 100 of these strips.
I did a similar thing for the center section of the block. I sewed together a strip of a 2″ x WOF of white, to a 3.5″ x WOF strip of a print, to another 2″ x WOF of white. Then subcut the strips every 3 .5″. You will need 50 of these strips.
Then I randomly laid out the strips into blocks and sewed them together. You need 50 Uneven Nine Patch blocks.
