Favorite go to quilt pattern
Lots of stash to use up. Do you have a favorite quilt pattern for a quilt that isn't planned for anyone particular?
Thanks. Terry |
I love the Disappearing 9-patch. That seems to be my go-to pattern lately.

I tend not to make the same quilt twice. But my first 2 quilts were 9 patch w 2.5" squares. The first was all pieced by hand front and back, and quilted by hand, initially tied. The second one was alternated with 6.5" squares. The reason for 2 9 patches was an overabundance of 2.5" squares. Then I've remade quilts that were lost in a hurricane, but made them better. For baby quilts, I've added borders to enlarge a panel. I don't know if that qualifies as the same. My problem is that I like to do different things.

I actually have two go to patterns: log cabin (can be arranged in so many different ways) and a basic strip quilt, sometimes just strings, sometimes with triangular corners (forms diamonds between blocks). Both are scrappy.

I just LOVE Boxed Squares. I am currently working on my 9th one. This is one from a couple of years ago. It uses 2 1/2" pieces and can be a wonderful scrappy.

Love BQ2 quilt by Maple Islands quilt. So easy you can make it in a day. I don't care for the 18" block but using EQ, I resized it so that the blocks are an easier 13.5" block.
