A quilter's favourite - the twelve inch quilt block. These are probably the most commonly used. The measurements divide easily and evenly for quick calculations. Whether the goal is a bed-sized quilt or a cuddle quilt in an afghan size, a 12" quilt block is your go-to choice.

Buttercup

Free Quilt Block Pattern

The Buttercup quilt block is one of many different flower blocks. This is a great block for beginners because it contains only squares and half square triangles. For those of you who want to make it more challenging, then I would suggest you make this quilt block as a 6 inch version.
