Disappearing Ninepatch Table Runner Tutorial



Welcome back to Day 2 of Marblehead Week of tutorials and giveaways! 

 Today's tutorial: Disappearing Ninepatch Table Runner
Use this clever piecing technique to make an autumn-hued runner for your table!
You'll Need:
  • Twenty 5" Marblehead squares
  • 1/3 yard white solid
  • 1/3 yard binding fabric
  • 1 yard backing fabric
  • 18" x 58" piece of batting

Cut sixteen 5" squares from the white solid. 
Lay out 5 colored squares and 4 white squares into a ninepatch as shown. Sew the squares together into rows and join the rows. 

Cut the ninepatch in half in both directions to create 7" blocks. 


 Make 3 more ninepatches and cut to create a total of 16 blocks. 

 Now it's time to lay out the runner! There are many different ways to lay out these disappearing ninepatch blocks. We'll show you a few options here, but you can experiment more on your own as well.




Sew the blocks into rows and join the rows. 



Layer the backing right side down, batting, and runner right side up. Baste and quilt as desired. Use four 2-1/4" x 42" strips to bind the runner.

    I love the disappearing none patch. It is one of the most versatile patterns out there. Not only is it a highly reusable pattern but it is user friendly for beginners.

    I love your fabrics and have missed them greatly since the store that carried them closed on our town and I know have to travel or order online.

    I love this idea. I've seen the disappearing 9-patch, but hadn't found a project to try it with. This table runner fits the bill!.. I'm working on some baby quilts for neighbors and charity. I follow you by RSS Feed & e-Mail. These Marblehead prints will make up some pretty projects.

    I am actually making table runners right now. I will make a whole set -- most are holiday/seasonal so the recipient can change them throughout the year. I will give the collection as a Bridal Shower gift later this month. I already follow by GFC and email.

    I have 5 WIP's at this instant: a couple of 22" hexagon wallhanging intended for my double door, a bed quilt using the MBS wigglywhimsy pattern, a T-shirt quilt graduation present for my niece, a long-term hexagon king-size bed quilt and lastly, sew the patches on my son's patriotic quilt top. I received them in the mail from my daughter-in-law because my son is currently deployed.

    Beautiful table runner. I do like the Disappearing Nine Patch and also the Disappearing 4 Patch a lot. These fabrics are such rich colors. So pretty. I'm glad you are going this challenge because I don't recall seeing this fabric before now.

    I am already a follower with BlogLovin' and also via email.

    I am not in the middle of any sewing project currently, however I do have a few that I need to work on very soon. I need to make a little purse for my oldest Granddaughter. Her birthday is the end of this month and she will be turning 6 years old. My future DIL is making her a little dress so I thought a purse to match the dress would be just perfect. After that I need to make a get started on placemats for gifts.
