I recently purchased a bunch of charm packs ..4 1/2 inches and 5 inches. Does anyone have any patterns that I can use these with?

Both sizes work up into a D9P very nicely.

Yes, D9P=disappearing nine patch

They are also a quicker way to make HSTs - half square triangles. Draw a diagnol line on the back of one, put another one right-sides-together, and sew 1/4" on either side of your line. Cut down the middle, and you have two hst blocks

Try this site www.modabakeshop.com I am sure there are some free patterns there that may appeal to you.

Go to the Fat Quarter Quilters site. They have tons of patterns using charm packs.

Has anyone else noticed that the LQSs are not carrying many charm packs now? I've been looking for some, and they're impossible to find! I had to order some online!
