After discovering a former Quiltbuddy named Bonnie Hunter and her Quiltville website, I saw her Zig Zag 9 patch and knew that's what I wanted to make with my swapped blocks. These are totally scrappy 9 inch blocks unfinished, which are a lot larger than those Bonnie used (she made hers from 2" scrap squares), so I drew out my own pattern. I'll use that very neutral tan for the setting squares and triangles. Bonnie included the Zig Zag 9 Patch in her previous book, Adventures with Leaders and Enders; it is even on the cover. My fabric is washed and I'm ready to get cutting those setting squares and triangles. See more design walls on Judy's Patchwork Times.

Fun nine patch project!
This is going to be a great quilt! Can't wait to see it come together!
I love that zigzag setting!! What a great idea. I can't wait to play around with it. This is going to be a cool quilt!!
Hmm, I can't recall that quilt, but I've got the book. I'll have to check it out.
There is something so much fun about making 9 patches. I should just make a million of them and use them as alternate blocks for my orphans. Love it. Was there a time that Bonnie Hunter was on a online group, unbelievable! She is so busy now!!!
This is going to be a great quilt. You just can't go wrong with a 9 patch quilt of any kind or a Bonnie design. Can't wait to see more.
That's a great design, it will be a wonderful quilt!
Sounds like you have a plan, which is half the battle with a UFO don't you think? Looking forward to seeing this one come together.
