 BLOCKS by SIZE | 12" Quilt Blocks |
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.

Let's look at this quilt block as an intermediate level of difficulty -- simply because there are quite a lot of pieces to work with. The good news is that you can make this as a larger block -- hence fewer blocks to make -- so that your quilt will go together faster.
Other than squares and rectangles, the only patches in the block are half square triangles and flying geese units. Both of these patches are among the first ones you learn as a beginner quilter, so this just goes to show that making a quilt block is not difficult.
