take 5 or 5 yard pattern
 

looking for information on the take 5 quilt which uses 5 1 yard pieces

The Five Yard Quilt that was offered free by Mill End Textiles has alternate blocks that look like bowties and measures 52" X 68". I believe that Mill End Textiles went out of business, but if you google the name of the quilt and Mill End Textiles all in one sentence it comes up in Pinterest and has the pattern there. If you use that pattern, look closely at the sewing instructions for Block One. The instructions are correct, but the sketch is not. It should be 1 1/2" X 8" for the horizontal rectangles and 1 1/2" X 6" for the vertical rectangles in this block.

The "Take five" quilt looks to me like "Yellow Brick Road" and appears to be for purchase.

The "take Five" quilt does not use 5 one-yard pieces. It uses pieces of different sizes.

This is a cute pattern - just take note that you will need to either "capture" the image from pinterest or just read it as the actual link that it points to is not available (at least it did not work for me).

Here are a few others

Thank you for this link, there were a couple of patterns I'd like to use! :)

thanks for all the help, did find what I was looking for - like your quilt Gale!!

There is also the "Take 5" pattern by The Teacher's Pet. This uses 5 fabrics in various amounts depending on the size you want. Child size is about 50 x 60 up to king. Works up fast for a quick gift or a charity quilt.
