Nine by Nine: 9-patch Quilts, 9 Ways (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

Three years ago, I started a guild, One Stitch at a Time, to make quilts for Habitat for Humanity and Love and Hugs.I wish I had had a copy of NINE BY NINE at that time.Many of the members were new to quilting and this book shows just how a simple patch can make a wonderful quilts.

Ms. Hershey shows the reader what a nine patch is and how, by using different fabrics, it can become beautiful patterns.The first four pages show nine different ways a nine patch can be made and turned to create different patterns.The next eleven pages covers quilting and finishing basics so you can learn how or brush up on the techniques.

There are fourteen projects which range in size from a table runner to a quilt that is 115 ½" square.Each pattern has a photo of the finished quilts, the finished quilt size and the finished block size that make up the quilt.A paragraph about the quilts begins each set of instructions.There is a materials list provided, along with general materials needed.Next, the blocks that make up the quilts are shown.Cutting directions come next, followed by how to make each block.Assembling the whole quilts, adding borders and finishing instructions are the final directions given.

This is a wonderful book and each quilt/table runner is something that will fit right into our charity work of giving to Habitat for Humanity.I will definitely take this book to our guild and have them use the patterns.
