For June's block I'd like two Disappearing Nine Patches. I love the versatility of the "D9P" and it's also just incredibly quick and easy. For each block you'll need:

Nine 4.5" squares in a mix of bright colors (think ROYGBIV) and low volume.  For the colored blocks, please use solids or blenders/near-solids (read as one color from far away). If you are new to quilting, low volume refers to white, off white, or light gray prints that have the effect of creating a background.

The placement of the squares within the nine-patch doesn't really matter, as the finished quilt is going to have the look of being improv-pieced. Blocks can have anywhere between 3 and 6 colored squares and the rest low volume.

Sew your squares together in 3 rows of 3 -- the order really doesn't matter! This is what will make this D9P "modern" :)  Then sew the rows together to make a nine-patch.

Press seams (any direction -- open, to one side, I don't care!), then here comes the disappearing part!! Cut your nine-patch down the middle horizontally and vertically.

Then mix up the pieces and sew them back together into a square. The block should be around 12" once pressed. (They'll be 11.5" in the finished quilt.) FYI, the picture below shows 2 blocks in case that wasn't clear!

Blocks can be mailed to my address, or I can arrange to pick them up from you. I plan to sew these blocks up into a baby quilt for the DC Diaper Bank this summer. 

Thank you so much!!
