Eight inch quilt blocks are commonly used in quilts that are made up of one block only and the parts are easily divisible by four. Also, by setting the blocks in different layouts, you can create many different new designs -- sometimes with just a simple rotation of the block. This is not to say that larger or smaller versions of the same quilt block cannot be used in your quilt. Once again, you are the designer.

Sample Quilt Layouts

The directional nature of the World's Fair Puzzle offers all sorts of design opportunites for your quilt.

The quilt layout images shown below on the left use 90 degree rotations in groups of four blocks to create a stunning geometric designs when setting the quilt blocks side by side.

The quilt layout images featured on the right swap out the two vibrant colours for half of the blocks. This creates a totally different look to the same quilts.
