 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.
Key Lime Pie
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Key Lime Pie quilt block is an easy block to sew, featuring several common patches. This nine patch design is comprised of squares, half square triangles and some quarter square triangles. I used colours that (to me) represented the key lime in a beige "pieshell".
The half square triangles and the quarter square triangle pieces fit together to create what quilters often refer to as a three quarter square triangle patch, as it uses three triangles to fill up the square. All in all, these pieces form a double pinwheel as the central motif. "Checkerboard" units in the corners complete the block.
