Just a few minutes ago as I was reading over the topics I saw someone was looking for directions for a quilt that looked like boxes with shadows. The pic was with the quilt on a bed. I can't even remember the name of the silly pattern. I didn't mark it because I didn't figure I had it, but while looking for another pattern I think I found it. I just saved the directions and forgot to add the link, but I'd be glad to send off the directions in a PM if I can find the poster. I can't post a pic like I wanted to, sorry.

Bless you sadiemae! I am going to put mine here for all that are interested.
Sorry the writing is upside down, but the measurements are in the list. Shadowed Blocks 50 x 64  from Background fabric A. Cut 1- 2 ½ x 14½ B. Cut 1 - 2 ½ x 10½ C. Cut 1 - 2 ½ x 5½ F. Cut 1 - 2 ½ x 3½ Center block I cut 1 - 6 ½ x 6½ from Shadow fabric D. Cut 1 - 2 ½ x 7½ E. Cut 1 - 2 ½ x 9½ from Frame fabric H. Cut 1- 2 ½ x 6½ G. Cut 2 - 2 ½ x 8½ B. Cut 1- 2 ½ x 10½  Makes one 14 finished block Note: yardage amounts are not listed, since this quilt can be made scrappy or with all identical colored blocks . Ό seam allowance used throughout. 50 x 64 quilt requires 12 blocks (14finished) Piece 12 blocks: Join C & D and E & F. Press seams & set aside until needed. Build this simple block working log cabin style by joining center block I & strip H, work clockwise adding G, G & B. Repeat with background & shadow fabric...starting with strip B, followed by C/D, E/F & A*. Pressing seams as needed. Join blocks in 3 vertical rows of 4 blocks. Borders 1st border of background fabric is only on 2 sides. The right (2 ½ x 56 ½) & bottom (2 ½ x 42 ½). To save fabric these lengths can be cut cross-grain & pieced. 2nd border consists of 2 strips of shadow fabric & 2 strips of background fabric. Cut 1 of each size shadow border fabric - 3 Ό x 58 ½(right side)* and 3Ό x 47Ό (bottom edge) Cut 1 of each size background border fabric- 3 Ό x 47Ό (top edge) and 3Ό x 64 (left side) Suggested ideas: Photo printed blocks in center squares Assorted I Spy blocks in center squares *Optional piecing technique: Complete 12 blocks minus section A. From background fabric cut 4 sashing strips - 2 ½ x 56 ½. Sew 3 vertical rows of blocks separated by background fabric sashing. Stitch 1 strip on right & left sides. Notice this replaces the 1st right border. |
thank you
