Anne from Guam Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I made a quilt using a nine patch block and a snowball block, and I can't remember if there is a name for this combo. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 That's an Irish Chain? (or a modified Irish Chain) but it could also have another fancy name... many quilt patterns have different names but are actually the same design, depending on where it originated from, etc... Could it be one of these? http://www.stcroixquilters.com/snowball.htm http://qisforquilter.com/2009/07/9-patch-and-snowball-quilt/ http://www.quilterscache.com/S/SnowballNinePatchBlock_Page2.html http://www.straw.com/quilting/articles/snowball4.html http://delawarequilts.com/BOMs/Snowball/index.html http://qisforquilter.com/2009/07/9-patch-and-snowball-quilt/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Von Roberts Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 http://qisforquilter...snowball-quilt/ Shana, this snowball/9 patch quilt on point makes a charming and interesting quilt. Thanks for posting the link, a great way to use up ones scraps. Yvonne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne from Guam Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks! Mine looks most like Shana's third link except that my background is where the rainbow colors are and my colors are where they used black. Hmmm there must be a better name than just snowball nine patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I think the real scrappy one should be called, "Any Which Way to Scraps". Darned thing won't let me post a happy, or rather cheesy smile! lol ROFL that should be cheeky smile! lol Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neher-in-law5 Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 If you are looking for a better name than snowballs and 9 patch, that very scrappy, third one of Shana's could be called "holes in my confetti" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
