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.

Ruins of Jericho

Free Quilt Block Pattern

The Ruins of Jericho quilt block is an easy design featuring only simple patches, and is one of many different biblical blocks available on this website.

The half square triangle patches are the only pieced units -- the first ones you will learn in your quiltmaking journey. Rectangles and squares finish out this design.

I almost forgot -- the centre pieced unit is called a square in a square patch -- one you will see over and over in quilt blocks.
