Long ago, i.e. in the days when people actually wrote letters, among my fellow quilters, I had the appellation "Nine-patch Queen", primarily because I loved this block. To me it was easy, versatile and rhythmic, synchronized, yet numerically uneven. In high contrast the block appears in balance, but I think subconsciously the brain knows otherwise, and this small conflict makes the basic 9-patch curiously more stimulating, despite its apparent simplicity. <br /><br />I have NO CLUE why I made this itsy-bitsy sample. Maybe just to see how small this block could be made, without paper-piecing and other precision methods of miniature quilt making. Maybe it was the consequence of cabin fever — long winters and deep snow.
