 BLOCKS by SIZE | 6" Quilt Blocks |
Many quiltmakers like to make six inch quilt blocks in order to use a greater variety of blocks in a sampler style quilt. Another reason might be to test out the look of a block in a smaller size in order to save on the fabrics (just in case the block looks very different than in your imagination).
Whatever your reason for creating six inch blocks, the pieces are all just smaller versions of larger sized quilt blocks -- such as the most popular size, the 12" quilt block. This is what makes quiltmaking so exciting -- you are the designer and get to choose all the components.
Road to Paradise
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Road to Paradise quilt block might look familiar, as it is one of many different "Road" block patterns that you will find on this website.
This four patch design is comprised of simple patches -- squares and half square triangles, making it an easy block to assemble.
The half square triangles are sewn as the usual patch of two contrasting fabrics to make a square or as single cut pieces to make the larger units in the opposite corners of the blocks. All in all, this is a simple block to add to your Road collection.
