Hey y'all,
I just finished my second quilt topper ever, yay! And now I'm looking into my next project . I have a habit of looking around websites and saving photos of quilts with the hopes of coming back to it later and being able to make one of my own. Well I found a quilt pattern that looks pretty easy, but I don't know what it's called. I'm sure someone out there knows the name of the blocks used or the quilt technique and could help! Also, a question, does this look like a relatively easy quilt for a beginner to complete? To me it just looks like 4 tiny squares sewn together with bigger blocks....thoughts? |
I don't know the name , but I think you are correct about it being a 4 patch set on point . I know someone here will be ablr to give you more help :wink:
I love the pattern and also want the name :lol: Sharon |
It looks like a 4 patch set on point. A great one for a beginner You can make it any size you want. 4 1/2 in blocks would make a 8 in finished block. Also, that is a setting of four, but you could do 6 or eight even.

That would be pretty done in 1930's reproductions. :D
|
somehow I managed to triple post Sorry! lol

I love this quilt - I am putting it on my project list! Do you think it may have been made with a couple of charm packs?

A 12" block means that each square in the 4-patch would be 6" and the alternate block would be a 12" white square. Why don't you take some pieces of the fabric you plan to use and just lay them out in the approximate size and take a look. The 4-patch happens to be one of my favorite blocks and it is so easy. The trick is in pressing the seams so they nest when you assemble the block. |
To my knowledge it doesn't have any special name.. it's just a scrappy 4 patch set on point. It should be VERY simple for a beginner. Nice choice!!
|
Just my two cents but I think a lot would depend on the fabric . The smaller prints would look better with smaller squares, does that make sense ?
