I'd like to share my take on the "Ten Minute Tiles" quilt pattern by Mary Lou Hallenbeck of H. D.Designs. This pattern was originally designed with gradient shaded fabrics in mind. The four rectangles are sewn together and then the square is appliqued when the rectangles meet. I really like how my fabrics worked in this quilt. Unfortunantly, it isn't quilted yet!

I've taken three of Mary Lou's classes and they have been fun and she shares so many tricks, like using Roxanne's Glue to glue down the square (edges are turned under first). It holds the square in place while you applique it.

You put it together the same as the 10-minute block? It is just so classy; love it.

I love the way the rectangles make a secondary square design. You're a real artist! There's so much creativity on this site.

Is it your own pattern idea? and what are the measurments of the squares or where can I get t he instructions. That would make a good quilt idea for my grandson.

OraLee, see the beginning of my post. I give the information about the pattern. My local quilting store carries Mary Lou's patterns. I believe you can also order them on her website, www.hddesigns.net

How pretty! I have never seen this pattern before. You have picked out the perfect fabric. It accentuates the pattern and gives it the flow to make it UNIQUE.
Keep at it and thanks for sharing.
Are you doing a special quilting pattern? :thumbup:

I would love to try this quilt using the 10 minute block where the center block is incorporated and uses only three seams to complete. Thanks for the idea. Love your 'modern ' take on this pattern.

I love it! Don't believe I've seen this block before....great job!
