The Crown of Thorns quilt block is a simple five patch block, but instead, is sewn as an uneven nine patch -- simply to make the construction easier. Lots of half square triangles are featured in this block -- which is one in a series of biblical quilt blocks that you will find on this website.

The two sample quilt layouts illustrated below utilize the most commonly used settings for your quilt blocks. A simple side by side layout with sashing strips to separate the blocks is a favourite among quilters. The quilt with blocks set on point features additional blank blocks for an extra pop of colour, and also, it's a place to showcase your quilting skills.
