disappearing 9-patch quilt-a-long

this weeks step will cover making the 9-patches

sort your 120 square novelty prints into 4 equal groups
place those squares in the 4 corners of a 9-patch layout
place your neutral squares between the novelty squares
and
place your tone on tone squares in the center


take the squares in the top row to the sewing machine
piece them with a 1/4" seam
return them to the layout

take the squares in the middle row to the sewing machine
piece them with a 1/4" seam
return them to the layout

take the squares in the bottom row to the sewing machine
piece them with a 1/4" seam
return them to the layout

the last step for this week is to sew the 3 rows together with a 1/4" seam
and press the blocks
