I'm looking for 4"-5" blocks. I'm not really into piecing. I'm a beginner to quilting. I didn't know if I could take the cuttings for a 8" or 9" block and just cut them in 1/2. thanks

thanks for making me feel welcome! This is all so new to me...quilting and computors!!!

Hi! I'm from southern Minnesota. I'm new to quilting and computors. I'm starting out doing table runners and wall-hangings. The project I'm working on now is very special to me.I started this about 2 years ago when I was diagnosed with Ovarion cancer. It is redwork panels of snowmen. I don't want it as large as the patttern is,so I'm getting ideas how to finish it smaller. I want to be creative,that's why I'm looking for the mini patterns. I have visions of snowflakes... thanks

Hello and welcome from Maryland. Wishing you the best and I am sure many here can help you with the small patch blocks.. Rhonda for one has many tutorials and even templates she can offer to you! Good Luck. :)

Welcome to the board! I am a miniaturist. I have shortcuts I use to get intricate looks in my minis. I have lots of quilt blocks I have designed. I use a 1 1/2" template to make a 6 1/2" quilt block but I also use 1 1/4" and 1" templates. If you are interested in looking here are the links for the Topics Lists
