    Default Easy Castle Quilt Block/Quilt?

    Does anyone know of any relatively easy blocks/quilts that look like a castle? I want to make a quilt for a co-worker who is having a boy and their nursery will look like a castle. This may very well be my first baby quilt that looks like a baby quilt. But who knows what I'll put on the other side! I always make double sided quilts...

    The closest I've found to what may work is on this page (scroll down a bit) http://chasingcottons.blogspot.com/2...1_archive.html

    Thank you in advance!

    I found a site that did a wonky castle BOM in 2013 if you want to check into it further. http://www.whimsandfancies.com/wonky-castle-bom-march/

    Dunster and thimblebug6000 and tapper, thank you for your links. They all look doable and now I have to make a decision! I like the simplicity in one on pillows, the manliness in the wonky one and the length in the purple one....

    I'll post a picture in a while...the baby shower is Sept 11th! Thanks again fellow quilters for your assistance!
