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.
Memory
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Memory quilt block could prove to be challenging for a beginner quilter, due to the number of pieces required to make the block. This quilt block contains 49 pieces. These pieces are sewn in groups of patches and then those groups are sewn together as a nine patch.
I have chosen to use bright oranges and yellows because this block looks to me to be a star, so I just went with that. It would be spectacular in shades of blue or as a totally scrappy quilt block. You just need to pay attention to the colour values in order to achieve the same effect.
