    Default Quest for a pattern

    If anyone knows where I could find this pattern and/or can help me with yardage for a twin size version that would be awesome! I can't figure out where it came from. I've been bouncing from pinterest board to pinterest board.

    It's an Irish chain. Alternating 9-patch blocks with one-patch blocks. What the quilter has done is coordinate the colors used in the 9-patch blocks with the adjoining one-patch blocks. I would think that if you figure on a fat quarter for each one-patch fabric, you would be fine for the colored sections (and have leftover fabric). Each row has 3 different one-patch blocks in it. For the white, just figure how much you need for the 9-patch blocks and border. That will depend primarily on the size of your 9-patches.

    Hope this is a little clearer than mud!

    If you decide on how big you want your finished quilt and on what size you want to make your 9-patches, someone here can figure out the yardage.

    Edit: I mean, it's a single Irish chain.

    Edit 2: I think this pattern would give you a good estimate of the yardage. Just change the border to solid white. And change to three 9-patches per row instead of four.

    that looks like a single irish chain to me with careful placement of fabrics. if you are asking about the fabric line, sorry, don't know it.

    I think the fabric is Kaffe Fassett. Beautiful quilt!

    You would need 4 yds for the aqua background, this includes a 4" border.
    Also you'd need 4 yds of coloured fabric. If you want 4 colours, then 1 yd of each - and if using 8 colours, then half a yard of each fabric.

    This is based on the blocks being a finished size of 6" ( cut the large blocks 6 1/2" and the 9patch blocks are made using 2 1/2" strips.

    This should give you a quilt 68 x 92. I haven't worked it out using 9" blocks, but imagine the amount of material would be the same.
