Saturday at the Quilt Museum - Nine Patch Quilts, Part 2

Nine Patch and Star
1800's

I've never seen a nine patch like this one.  The lights are made into hourglass blocks, thus giving the appearance of stars.  I may try this sometime!

Double Nine Patch
1890's

Double nine patch sets always catch my eye.  Especially when they are blue. :-) Isn't this one pretty?
