the first quilt i did was in the early 1990's. i was sewing four squares together into four patches. i made so many that i placed each block facing each other and sewed around, leaving an opening. i turned them right side out and stuffed with squares of batting. then i sewed the opening together. What to do with tons of stuffed four patches? I ended up butting them next to each other and zig zagging them together into rows and the rows into a queen size quilt. i had tons of buttons to so i sewed buttons in the centers of the four patches, both sides. The quilt was reversible, light fabric and buttons on one side and darker fabrics and buttons on the other. I kept if for years and finally put it in my charity stuff since it took up so much room to store it. too fluffy for me by then.
