5 fabric quilt pattern
 
Ladies,
I saw a quilt pattern that uses only 5 fabrics. Does anyone know the name of it? It is made up of rectangles/squares. These are put together to make a block. I've tried Googling and it isn't coming up with anything but a book title.

Thanks for your help!
Ginger

Could it be 'Take 5'?

Try this site: http://www.quilterscache.com/Alphabe...stPageA_F.html It has all kinds of patterns.

An easy pattern that really turns out great. I have a couple of the patterns. One is set on point. I haven't made that one yet.

gingerd 12-16-2011 03:17 AM

WOW--the Quilters Cache does have a lot of patterns. I'll look into this later.

Thanks for sharing-

Check Quilter's Cache and you can count the number of colors that are in a block. There are an awful lot of them. I have already made a sampler quilt that had nothing but blocks with five different fabrics. Good luck. It's a lot of fun, isn't it? I find that the planning is the anticipation, the making is the formation and the finish is the satisfaction.

I didn't know she had passed away. Sewing has lost another great one.

Thanks so much for your help Ladies!

Barbara--I sent you a pmail!

fmhall2 12-17-2011 11:34 AM

I get the Clotilde catalog, but I never noticed the 5 before. I like it.

maryellen2u 12-17-2011 01:20 PM

For once I knew the answer to a question but was someone beat me! Yes the "take five" quilt is fun to do. I've made it several time and it always turns out really cute. It is a great way to showcase fabrics. Now I've feeling like a quilting wizard!

pjnesler 12-17-2011 06:29 PM

I'll have to try this one too - I've got a few bundles of fabrics that would be great - thanks for the post!

Here is a link to a free pattern that can use any number of fabrics but has squares and rectangles. Many different sizes you can make, too.

I've gotten "Take 5", now where would I find "Nifty 5 Yard?"

Thanks
