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.

Ts in a Ring

Free Quilt Block Pattern

There are many versions of "T" blocks. The Ts in a Ring quilt block uses four "Ts" and rotates them in each of the four quadrants of the block.

This quilt block is made only with squares and half square triangles, but in two different sizes. I have chosen to make this quilt block as a scrappy version in a "controlled" colour palette, using a variety of fabrics for the dark parts of each half square triangle.

When you construct this block as a four patch, you will be surprised at how quickly all the parts go together.
