Yes, a picture would be nice to know what the finished project looks like

You start with 1 yard of fabric - 36" x 42". Fold in quarters and trim down to 18x21" (make sure you trim on the unfolded edges. Then, after the cuts, the total length is 9" + 24" + 9" = 42"(unfolded). In the folded case, you have a 9x9" square upper right, 9x12" rectangle below it. 9x9 upper left (with a fold), and 9x12 lower left (which unfolds to 18x24).

Thank you AnitaGrossmanSolomon and kristakz! This is great! It looks fast and easy, and it's something that we can do in our little church quilting group for missions!

Ive made several of these 9 patch quilts - super easy. Any idea where I can get the pattern for Super Size Square On Point quilt? Looks like another good one.

Please have a look at my pattern courtesy of Quiltmaker Magazine and the video I made with Alex Anderson. I've included the links for you below. And if you have questions, don't hesitate to send me an email.

this is a great pattern. I used it to make blankets for a son's dogs (they didn't care was thhe result might be

)
quick & easy.
Just a thought if you're making charity quilts quantity- how about putting 4 together for a larger top. you could also mix around the pieces between them for variety

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I have spent the better part of the morning looking for my issue Sept/October '11 Quiltmaker for the square on point pattern and can't find it...I know I have it because my list that I keep for magazine I have says I purchased this magazine...Oh well guess I won't be making this pattern anytime soon.....I'm betting it's hiding with my lost Yellow Brick Road pattern. Darn ole gremlins lol

Thank you ,Anita for your innovative thinking about making quilts!! I saw you do this one on Alex's show and have had it in the back of my mind just waiting for someone to have a baby! I just finished your Anita's Arrowheads (saved from Quiltmaker magazine years ago). I loved your technique and know the 12 year old boy will love his "not girly" quilt.
