Scrappy Nine-Patches Make a Charming Quilt
| June 23, 2020 | Quilt Ideas
This is a Quick Project with Simple Piecing!
Floating nine-patch and four-patch blocks are wonderful in this beautiful quilt. It’s a easy quilt with an endearing understated charm.
Start with 2 1/2″ jelly roll strips. Those can be from a fabric line you love or use leftovers from your stash. They create a pretty scrappy look against a solid background.
Play with colors and choose a background that shows them off nicely. A deep gray or even black will be stunning with bright colors. Or, a pastel background can give the quilt a retro look.
The finished quilt, from Emily Sew Busy, is 55″ x 65″.
