 BLOCKS by SIZE | 7.5" Quilt Blocks |
Ten inch quilt blocks are a favourite of quilters. However if you are wanting to make a smaller version of any given 10" block, with a little finagling, the math for a 7½ inch block is not that difficult. And -- for the blocks below, I have done that math for you! A win-win!
Garden of Eden
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Garden of Eden quilt block is technically a five patch block, as it is designed on a 5 x 5 grid. However, it is another block that falls into the category of uneven nine patch, so called because the three rows making up the nine patches are not all the same width. However, the good news is that the sewing method is the same for any nine patch with equal sided units.
This quilt block is a perfect block to introduce the quilter to the square in a square patch, resulting in a square set on point. This is a common patch used in many quilt blocks.
