Ladies....the pattern for this monster quilt came out of my quirky little brain. It all started with me making a throw pillow with some scraps and liking the way it looked. I just kept making blocks. The four patch blocks start out as 2 1/2" squares, alternating a color with a neutral. I stacked three four patch blocks together. The rectangle blocks each measure 7.5" with two of them sewn together to make one long one. Sew these to the side of the four patch blocks. Quite simple but very repeative.
My husband thinks I should copywrite it and sell the pattern, but I had a hard enough time just discribing the process here for you!!
I want to make another one, but using only one main colorway, such as all blues & creams, or greens and creams, or the ever popular red and white.
If you decide to make one have fun with it.

I like the idea of doing this in one colorway as well. I hope to see one!

Yes Lena I still have scraps left over. Now I'm working on using some up in a scrappy square in a square. Funny, but my scrap pile isn't dwindeling!!
