Harvest Pinwheels: Framed 9-Patch




12" finished block


***These cutting instructions are for ONE block. You will need TEN of these blocks to make the quilt. This way, if you choose to, you can test one block, and then go back and make the remaining nine you will need to finish the quilt.


From Gold Cut:

- 9 squares measuring 2 7/8 x 2 7/8


From Cream Cut:

- 4 squares measuring 2 7/8 x 2 7/8

- 4 rectangles measuring 2 7/8 x 7 3/4


Block Assembly:

Sew together your 9 patch unit first. Sew 1 gold square (2 7/8 x 2 7/8) to the top, and 1 to the bottom of 2 rectangles (2 7/8 x 7 3/4), giving you 2 gold/rectangle units. Then sew 1 rectangle (2 7/8 x 7 3/4) to the top, and 1 to the bottom of your 9 patch unit. Matching seams, go back and sew on the two gold/rectangle units to the 9 patch/rectangle unit finish the block.
