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.

Frolic

Sample Quilt Layouts

The Frolic quilt block is made of simple shapes -- squares and half square triangles -- and so, the blocks are quick to sew together. Then the fun begins as you decide on which quilt layout to use for your quilt. Two ideas are shown below, but there are oodles of possibilities.

The quilt layout shown on the left uses a common side by side quilt setting of the blocks. The quilt layout on the right sets the blocks on point, and mixes up extra corner triangles for each block, which results in more colour in your quilt. What will your heirloom quillt look like?
