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.

Indian Star

Sample Quilt Layouts

The Indian Star quilt block is a wonderful choice for a beginner quilter as there is only one pieced patch to learn -- the flying geese unit, shown on all four sides of the block.

The sample quilt layout on the left shows the use of 90 degree rotations of some of the blocks, resulting in a secondary pattern emerging. This is the fun of experimenting with blocks that have an obvious directional nature. The quilt layout on the right sets the blocks on point and adds that extra pop of colour in the form of additional blank blocks.
