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.

I went with a dark background fabric for the Nighttime Sky quilt block just to go along with the name. Also, I figured stars were different shades of yellow or gold, hence those colour choices.
This four patch quilt block would be a good choice to introduce a new quilter to the flying geese patch as it is a common choice in patchwork. Actually, I took a liberty with the construction of this block and figured fewer seams is always a better choice and so, I used the flying geese patches rather than having an additional seam in that patch from using half square triangles, as was the original design of the block.
