Do you know the name of this pattern
 

Does anyone know the name of this quilt, I would like to find a pattern.

I don't have that pattern, but I could probably talk you thru it if no one else comes up with a pattern. If you tilt your head? you will see a checkerboard block and a pinwheel block. For the checkerboard, you can either do all the small squares one by one, or do two strip sets. One set would be color/neutral/C/N/C and the other set would be N/C/N/C/N. YOu would need 3 sets starting with the neutral and 2 sets starting with the color. The pinwheel block is 4 HST squares put together. Side and corner triangles are needed to fill in. Hope this gives you a start. I would be pretty easily done up on graph paper.

Don't know the name, I would hate to match it all up.

Thank you, soccertxi. I have it graghed, I'm wondering about fabric requirements to see if my are the same. A friend of my mine has asked me to make this quilt for her. I have this sold for $600. I really thought she would say no, but I quess I sold my first quilt.

a variation of patches and pinwheels on point? you can find the basics here http://www.maryquilts.com/16-patch-and-pinwheels/ or at Quiltville.com

It looks like an EQ drawing of a quilt pattern.

Congratulations on your first sale, and on your excellent drawing!

How big a quilt does your friends want - is that supposed to be a twin or king?
If it's the larger - do want bigger blocks or more blocks or that picture to fit the size?

Wow!! You made a great first sale. Wish I could find that kind of market around here. this quilt would be very easy to make. You can just look at it and put it together once you figure out your dimentions of the blocks you want. I say, get crackin!! Times a wastin! 2.5 inch blocks is always a good size to work with.

This pattern is on Quilters Cache somewhere, I'll have a look and find the page. Can't remember the name of the block.

Can't find it, must have been in a magazine somewhere. Others are here with very good results! :)

If your base measurement is 2" FINISHED for the 16-patch block, then the quilt size, as you've drawn it, will be ~60"x72", including borders.

Estimated fabric requirements would be:

16 patch blocks - Colors (total) and Neutral = 1 yard each

Pinwheels - Colors (total) and Neutral = 1.25 yards each

Border yardage not included.

And if you drew that layout, you don't need a pattern. ;-)

Exactly what I was thinking. Did you draw it, or did you find the picture somewhere?

Don't mind me, but that is a 25 patch block.
Sue

Yikes. And so it is. Thanks.
(I pulled up an earlier version I already had in EQ).

Be back in a minute.....


Actually, the drawing I used did use the 25 patch but I incorrectly put it in as an 8" block instead. Duh.

REVISED Estimated fabric requirements would be:

25 patch blocks/10" blocks - Colors (total) and Neutral = 1.5 yards each

Pinwheels - Colors (total) and Neutral = 1.75 yards each

Border fabric yardage not included.

Size as drawn would be ~74"x84" including borders.

Note: The fabric amounts might even be a little less because of the weird way EQ calculates yardage.


Thanks susie-susie-susie!

MTS you are really good at figuring out just what she needs, fab. and all I'm thinking we need to just give you a pic. when we have a problem on a pattern and let you figure it out for us, lol you're great! I could probably figure this out but it woul have taken me a good while to do so, and seems you did it it just a few minutes.

Most of the time I don't use a pattern, but I always over estimate how much fabric I need. Thank you for your help.

This is a picture, the customer emailed me. The quailty is very poor. I did regragh this because the custmer wants a custom size wall hanging 3 ft x 7 ft. The only reason I'm looking for the pattern is for the fabric requirements. I always over estimate, and end up adding to my stash. With this one I want to be a little closer.

I would add the corners to the 25 patch block and forget all the on point stuff. The outside blocks would be a headache for me to set.

Just an FYI - the quote from my earlier post that you both included was incorrect. I did revise it in another post after Susiex3 pointed out my boo-boo.

Well, no pattern is going to have the requirements for that rather non-standard size.

Ignore the colors - I just do that in EQ to easily and quickly get the fabric requirements.

This layout gets you close to 33"x86" including the borders - using a basic patch eize of 1.5" FINISHED (cut 2"), blocks are 7.5" FINISHED.

25patch blocks - 3/4 yard for each the colors and neutral.
Pinwheel blocks - 1 yard each for colors and neutral.

If you go up to a 1.75" FINISHED unit (cut 2.25"), block size 8.75" FINISHED, you'll be over the 36" width - maybe the customer is hanging it on the wall between two doors and that's the exact size she needs.
You could always adjust the borders if you wanted the larger block.
The fabric needed would increase only by about 1/8yd for the pinwheels.

You're going to end up with extra fabric anyway because you need a variety of colors to make it work.
If you buy 8-10 fat quarters for the colors and variety, you should have more than enough for the 25patch and pinwheel blocks.

This should easily take less than a day to cut and sew.
Picking the fabric will probably take longer. ;-)
Depending on how fast you work, you could have the whole thing quilted and bound as well. :thumbup:

Thank you for the pattern and thank you to Soccertaxi for the quick plans. I think I can do this. What a good way to use scraps and to challenge us just a little. Oh , yes and thanks to MTS for the fabric calculations! Off I go to add another scrappy quilt to my pattern collection. Wish I had more time to actually implement my plans! Retirement is in about 6 years....maybe then. Tee-Hee! :D

Looks like a great scrap quilt! Should be easy to figure a pattern, pinwheels and 5 patch. Just have to figure a reasonable size, 1" finished squares would need a 2.5" finished triangle for the pinwheels, for one size combo.

Whatever the name, this looks like a great project to bust your stash. Would love to see this made up!

It's a 25 patch with a pinwheel. Set on point. Several are saying 16 patch. Look more carefully.

According to Judy Hopkins in "Around The Block Again" it is COUNTRY CHECKERS. HOPE THIS HELPS.

Noted and revised.
Read the whole thread.

Thank you Marlo, I found the pattern on Connecting threads

This is gonna be a cool art piece. Congrats and keep us updated.

@ MTS: You are Maaaaaaaavalous!
peace

definately on quilters cache its a 12" block. Just downloaded it a few days ago myself.

I must not be understanding this pattern,I do see the pinwheels but why worry with them?I would strip set the checkerboard block (one light one color)using 5 strips and(turn each 1/4 turn befor I sewed the hst )on point and do a half square triangle( one light and one dark) on all 4 sides you can see they are set with the lights and darks arranged to form the pinwheels, then add a 3 or so inch strip with corner block then 2 colored piano keys with corner block and another strip with corner blocks would this not work? I would have 20 blocks. Maybe I would have a mess but...

I would sew the blocks in straight rows as we look at the pattern in lieu of the 25 patch block and pinwheel block version and set in diagonal rows (IMHO). Like the comment just above, doing the 25 patch block, then sewing the 2 HST (made like the Boston block for an easier way) to each corner, sounds more my style of sewing the block. Your quilt will be interesting and will look forward to a pic of your final work.

$600? for a 3' x 7' wallhanging? OMG!!!

Missouri quilt co just uploaded one similiar to it have a look just add the pin wheels I think

oops, that's 25 patch, not 16. Remember to cut the pinwheel triangles as quarter square triangles.

This is how I'm planning on making this, The first payment will be here This Wednesday and I will order thr fabric then.

I saw that too, Thank you for posting. Isn't Jenny site just great. Wise I would have thought of here ideas.

I'll post when i have it completed.

our guild made one for our raffle quilt at one of our shows and it was called Patches&Pinwheels. The pattern was in a magazine. Some members made the patches block and others made the pinwheels. It was a beautiful quilt .
