A quick note about material requirements: Each block in this quilt uses one fat quarter, but also leaves a lot of
scraps from the fat quarter. It may seem like a lot of fabric, but
you will have a lot left over for another project!

42" x 52 1/2" 52 1/2" x 63" 63" x 84" 94 1/2" x 94 1/2" 105" x 94 1/2"

* I used two colors (red and green) to make my quilt, but you can use as
many colors as you like. If you are using just one color or a variety
of colors, just combine the Color 1 and 2 fabric requirements
(for example the Throw size requires 30 fat quarters total).

Before you begin:


• Please read through all of the instructions.
• All seam allowances are 1/4”. The assumed width of fabric is 40", and 20” for fat quarters.
• "Right sides together" has been abbreviated to "RST".
• "Width of the fabric" has been abbreviated to "WOF".

Cutting Instructions:
1. Cut each Fat Quarter into 2 strips 4”, and 2 strips 3” along the 18” side of the fat quarter. Sub-cut the 4” strips
into 9 squares 4” x 4”, and sub-cut the 3” strips into 8 squares 3” x 3”.

2. If starting with 1/4 yards instead, cut one strip 4” x WOF, and one strip 3” x WOF. Sub-cut the 4” strip into 9
squares 4” x 4”, and sub-cut the 3” strip into 8 squares 3” x 3”.

3. From the binding fabric cut:

Crib Throw Twin Queen King


2 1/2" x WOF strips: 6 7 8 10 11

Assemble the Blocks:

1. To make one block gather 8 of the 4” squares from one of the 9 - 4” squares 8 - 3” squares

colors of fabric (in this case green), and from the other color of
fabric, gather 1 square 4”, and 8 squares 3”.

I mixed up the center squares in my quilt with the other fabrics


to add interest to the blocks.

2. On one of the outer 4” squares, place a 3” square in the bottom corner RST as shown. Draw a diagonal
pencil line from corner to corner on the wrong side of the 3” square as shown (see my note down below
for a much easier way to do this!). Sew on the pencil line. Trim the corner leaving 1/4”, and press the
corner out.
Visit my post “The Triangle
Corner Trick” on my blog to skip
marking diagonal lines and save
TONS of time!

3. Repeat in the adjacent bottom corner of the square with another 3” square. When finished the unit should
still measure 4” x 4”, square up as needed.

Repeat to make 4 of these units.

Make 4

4. Layout the block units as shown. Sew the units into 3 rows as shown, press the seams in the direction
indicated by the arrows in the image. This will allow the seams to nest when you sew the quilt together.

The blocks should measure 11” square. Repeat to make the following number of blocks:

Crib Throw Twin Queen King


Blocks to make: 20 30 48 81 90

Quilt Assembly:

1. Layout the blocks into rows as shown in the table below and layout diagrams. If you are using two colors,
alternate between the two colors as you layout your blocks as I did. Rotate the blocks as needed so that the
seams of adjacent blocks will nest!

seams to the left, etc).

3. Pin and sew the rows RST to complete the quilt top. Press.

Finish the Quilt:


1. For the Crib, Throw & Twin, cut the length of the backing in half, making 2 equal pieces. For the Queen &
King size, cut the length of the backing in 3 equal pieces. Trim selvages, and sew a selvage end from each
piece RST.

2. Layer the quilt top, batting, and backing. Baste and quilt as desired.

3. Trim away the excess batting/backing, and bind. A free guide to finishing your quilt can be found at
