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.
Magic Triangles
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Magic Triangles quilt block is a simple block where you will use only two basic patches.
The half square triangles are the first units you will learn to sew if you are new to quiltmaking. The only other patch in this four patch block is what is often referred to as a three quarter square triangle patch since it uses three triangles to fill the square. These are sewn with cut pieces of half square triangles and also quarter square triangle units. Colour placement is what makes this block take on all sorts of different looks -- my sample block creating some pinwheels with the yellow patches.
