Description

The quilts shown below are made from one block. Choose from five different block sizes. The quilt on the left is totally scrappy and the quilt on the right uses a background fabric. This background fabric can be one fabric or assorted low volume prints. For both versions, the blocks are set by rotating alternate blocks so there are no seams to match.

To find fabric requirements for the quilt on the right, enter the total number of blocks needed. Divide the fabric in half. Cut one half from background fabrics and the other half from accent fabrics.
