"I would love to do this pattern for a friend of mine. Her name is Joy and is having a little boy in February but It will not let me pull it up. It gives me an error message about the blog being closed."

Nine Patch Tutorial

"A nine patch is one of the most basic quilting blocks. At it's most basic, it is nine different squares of fabric sewn together to form a larger square. Patterns can be created with the 9 patch. Or you can keep it totally random, like I've done. These are really easy to make and perfect for beginners. Nine patch quilt blocks can also be a compilation of smaller quilting units like the 4 patch or half square triangles. Learn the basic technique and then try adding in different smaller units into your nine patch blocks."
