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.

Travelled Roads

Sample Quilt Layouts

Two sample quilt layouts featuring the Travelled Roads quilt blocks are shown below.

The quilt layout illustrated on the left uses 90 degree rotations to make use of the directional nature of the block. All sorts of interesting designs can be made using this rotation technique. This quilt shown here is only one of many.

The quilt layout featured on the right sets the blocks on point, separating them with sashing strips. Additional blank blocks in different fabrics give an extra colour pop to the quilt and also a spot to showcase your quilting designs.
