Double Four Patch
 

Here's a Double Four Patch I made using the stash. I can't justify more fabric purchases until I get rid of some of what is here....

Anyway... it finishes at approximately 56 inches square. I found a free, basic pattern online and used it to make something the size I wanted.

Very attractive pattern! I also love the variation in your blues - everything about this quilt says simple and elegant. I like it very much.

Very nice! I need to do that, too. Especially since I went to Goodwill and bought 115 yards of fabric this past Sunday....couldn't pass it up. It was obviously a quilters stash who had passed away or was downsizing to move into a smaller place. The fabrics are fantastic LQS quality, and it worked out to be less than $3 a yard. I'm slowly using the Bonnie Hunter method to cut down the containers of scraps I have that are smaller than fat quarters into certain sizes so I can quickly make quilts in the future with those scraps. There is never enough time....

Since blue is my favorite and scrappy are my favorite.....this quilt is a winner in every way. Thanks for the inspiration!

awesome.great design and the white makes the blue really pop

looks very nice in blues.

I don't even like blue but that is an attractive quilt. I find simple is often best and makes for relaxing stitching.

VERY pleasing to the eye!

Very pretty. Great pattern.

Great job! Can you please tell me where to get the pattern?

Very nice! Bright, but soothing in the blues.

I've never seen that pattern before, but I really love it. Blue is my favorite color. Your blues really stand out.

You've made a very pretty quilt.

Very nice..... love the blues

Very pretty!

That is cool. I haven't seen that pattern before.

Thank you, Everyone!

This quilt was fun to make. Though the randomness is challenging for me. I seem to insist on order. And with this, I grabbed a piece and sewed it on.

Thanks again!! :)

Blue and white ... always strikes me as clean , and crisp color combo! I love this pattern. You did this pattern proud!!! wonderful.

Each block is just 2 four patches and 2 squares. When put together correctly they for the chains. It is a beautiful quilt!

I love the colours and the pattern, simple but elegant at the same time. Very nice. Thank you for sharing.

I really do like the pattern and all the blues you had in your stash! Lovely.

It's beautiful! I think blue & white quilts are so classy & classic. I'd never seen this pattern before & I love it! Would you be so kind as to tell us where you found it? Was it here? http://quilting.about.com/od/blockof...four-patch.htm

Love the quilt, looks like a good pattern for a newbie like me. Thank you for sharing!

Your quilt is absolutely beautiful What a good way to use up some stash. I need to do that too. Thanks for the link. That looks like a nice site. thanks for sharing.

Sometimes the simplest blocks make the best overall designs. I love your quilt. I can't wait to try some variations of that pattern. That is one of those, "Why didn't I think of that" ideas that should have been lingering in the brain.
