How Many Disappearing 4 Patches and Disappearing 9 Patches Variations Exist?

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Learn about some of the variations possible for disappearing 4 and 9 patch blocks, including half-square triangles and diagonal cutting of 4 patches.
These blocks are traditional blocks that have been changed to create 100's of variations that can be arranged into quilts to make each quilt unique.
Tula Pink fabric was used in many of the blocks. I also use "moo" and "cow" prints from my stash dating back to 1993.
How many of these quilts have you made?

    Yay, another ambidextrous quilter! You dont see us very often. About the ruler slipping -- the best thing i have ever found is clear Flex Seal. Yeah, that spray-on rubber stuff. 😂 Those rulers do not move! It does make your ruler look a bit frosted, but once its on the fabric you cant see it anymore.

    I have made several Disappearing 9-patch quilts but you have shown me that the 4-patch is just as versatile. I can't wait to start one. I'm making donation quilts for my doctor's homebound and hospice patients. I get all the fun of trying out new patterns and other people benefit, so it's a win-win.

    Just a thought - maybe you could publish a book just on these patterns alone, providing 'how to" instructions, finished sizes, fabric choices, etc. I reckon it'd be a best seller, especially for those of us who are fairly new at this wonderful world of quilting. I'd be your first customer for the book and it's also something people can pass down to their families throughout their lives. It'd definitely be "a keeper"!

    I'm absolutely knocked out by this tutorial. You are an expert teacher and one of very few who have inspired and motivated me to try something new for a long time. I can't tell you how excited I am to start on each and every one of these variations. I've parried with the very first one and became so frustrated with the bulk when trying over and over again to line up the middle 2 x 1" strips with the 2" x 2" little squares, but if just persevered and persisted and I'm now happy with the finished block. The next one I'm going to tackle is the one which is cut diagonally. My ultimate intention is to produce all of the blocks, choose which ones I can use to repeat enough to make a KS quilt for my son in VA. Thankyou again (wish I knew your first name, though) for making my year! Suzie, Australia.

    Excellent, well organized, well prepared to show variations. I subscribed cause you’re a conscise speaker. Anxious to see more of your ideas. Someone should do a book of these block variations. You have a start with all your particall to fully sewn pieces. Giving the starting and finishing dementions is helpful. I suggest you photo document your blocks incase you later decide to make a pamphlet/booklet/book. Thank you from an old quilter!

    I just did a Disappearing four patch cut diagonally. I marked the two inches from the corner. I discovered that if line your ruler up from point to point it's exactly 1.5" from the center. I purchased a Stripology Ruler XL. Put my four patch under the ruler, lined up the points and made two cuts 1.5" from center and turned and did the other two cuts. In squaring up the blocks did the same thing. Much faster and much more to accurate. I used a layer cake, sewed down two sides, cut in the middle, laid the dark over the light and sewed on two sides that had the seams, cut down the middle and had two four patches. Made a very pretty design with light touching light. Would recommend using all one color way with a white background. My quilt didn't have the pop that I like so the same color squares will be made into table runners or other small projects and placemats and napkins and Cozy bowls. Great stash buster!

    You are an amazing teacher. I've never seen so many variations. I have taken 4 memory quilts for the same family and after watching this I think I'll use the different disappearing 4 or 9 patch for all of them. They'll all have the same fabrics but different looks. I especially like the one cut diagonal. Thank you so much.

    Just found your videos - I love the “disappearing” type blocks!! And I love my rotating mats. But years ago before the rotating mats were available, I,learned that I could put one of my smaller mats right on top of the big table one - cut and then rotate the smaller mat for the second cut. Those rotating mats are a bit pricey and this tip might help other quilters who,prefer not to spend money when they don’t have to.

    Hello, I’m a beginner and just finished a disappearing 9 patch quilt. I did the simple pattern where you rotate the squares 180 degrees. I also tried to do diagonal cuts after. Urticaria f the Ay h horizontally and vertical. The first block turned out ok but when I tried to do the second block I kept getting lost as to where to show the triangles. I also learned that the more seams the smaller your block gets 🤪🤦🏻‍♀️😂. So you have to commit to using the same pattern or ones that will end up close to the same size. I wanted to do different pattern blocks but I would have had to figure out how to make them all work together. Don’t have the knowledge or want to spend the time to do so. But one thing that I enjoyed doing with this quilt top is being able to chain piece. Eventually the quilt top turned out ok. Now I have to put a border and finish it. Having a blast 💥.
