I started with six or seven Verna Charm Packs. I arranged the 5 inch squares into 9 patches and sewed them together row by row. I ended up with 30 of these blocks.
I pressed the seams of the outside rows out and the middle row in so the seams would notch together.
The nine patch is a 14 inch block so I cut it in half at 7 inches.
I turned it and cut again at 7 inches. This is the disappearing nine patch block.
Because I started out with 30 nine patch blocks, I now have 120 seven inch blocks.
I plan for this quilt to be 10 blocks across and 12 blocks down. It should end up a twin size.
To lay out your quilt you put 4 of the patches together like this. Arrange them so no seams are meeting. It should look something like this. I'll post more pictures when I have it all put together.
