** Nine Patch **
NIFTY NINE PATCHES
by Carolann M. Palmer
If anyone ever thought ninepatches were humdrum, this should change their mind.
This book also has good instructions on quick rotary cutting and piecing
techniques.
NINE PATCH WONDERS
by Blanche Young and Helen Young Frost
First Star publishers, Tucson, Arizona 1991
Shows what can be done with a nine patch block (interesting color plays,
optical illusions, three dimensional woven effects).
The best of traditional designs as well as some original variations. Some
quilts are made with all Nine Patch blocks; others combine the pieced blocks
with background blocks. Others are variations on the Double Nine Patch design,
where pieced blocks are joined with plain squares to form large Nine Patch
blocks. Combining the 9Patch with other shapes, such as rectangles or
triangles, creates even more variations.
