How many different shades of white did you use?

I was cutting out a Summertime Stars quilt at the same time and I needed 15 blacks and 15 whites for that, so I think I used the same number for the disappearing 9 patch. But you can use any number! That depends on how big your quilt will be, how big your blocks are, and how many different fabrics you use. If you want a scrappy look, fat quarters or charm packs would work. The whole quilt is made from squares that can be any size, and they are all the same size.

My quilt had 96 dark squares, 96 light squares, 24 accent squares, and two borders. I am making a child's quilt with pockets for small dolls The ones being offered now at MacDonalds and I thought a disappearing nine patch would work well for it for a friends 4 year old.

Love the step by step photos. Followed your tutorial and have my own version now just waiting for the binding.

This quilt is so wonderful. I love the red pop! I linked your instructions to my blog. Love the quilt! I've decided on the Disappearing pattern for a quilt for my sister-in-law to take to college with her this fall.

The blanket dimensions that I have found for an XL twin dorm bed are 68 x Would I be better off to make the blocks bigger or to do more blocks? I'm also confused about the block size. Is this right? It seems the reconstructed patch should be larger than that.

You could either make bigger blocks, or more blocks, depending on how many you want to make. It is a fabulous quilt. The decision will be what accent color? Thank you for a great tutorial! I made a black and white star quilt that still needs a small inner accent border I am pondering the same thing, what color?

I am thinking teal might be nice I am so in like of this. I want to stop everything and make this. But, NO I must finish everything, well at least something I am doing. Then start this. Love love love. I am so late, to write about my DNP. I never heard before of it. Thank you for your tutorial. The Quilt was a gift for my husband on Christmas last year.

Greetings from Germany Iris. I love it! I have been collecting black and white material. Now I know what I am going to do! Thank you! I was wondering how to do that block. I would get distracted by the fabrics and colors and and I will give this one a shot after I finish a top I have lurking on the shelf daring me to quilt it before I start another project Came across this when looking for example disappearing nine patch quilts to show my mum.

Coincidentally I'm hoping to do a similar design with black batiks, white prints and hot pink batik fabrics. If it looks even half as good as yours, I'll be well pleased! I am new to quilting, please tell me how much fabric of each color to purchase or how to determine the amount to buy.

One of the surprises I discovered in a recent almost done major tidy up session of my quilting space was a bunch of 5'' squares which I had cut down from a set of fat quarters with the intention of making a baby quilt.

With the intent to donate the finished quilt, I wanted a pattern that would look good and also go together quickly. I also discovered some perfect backing fabric so I'm motivated to get this done! One block I've used before for table runners is a disappearing 9 patch! This works with any size square.
