Pieced Celtic Knots Star in This Unusual Quilt

| Simplified Construction Makes This Easier Than it Looks!
Blocks with the look of Celtic knots grace this unique quilt. The pieced border sets them off beautifully.
Give your version the look of a scrappy quilt, as designer Maria Umhey did here. Or, choose a selection of coordinating colors for a stunning version.
Play with color and value placement to determine what to emphasize within the blocks. Mix it up as the designer did or create a striking overall pattern by making each block the same.
While this quilt looks complicated, there’s nothing tricky about its construction. The blocks go together similar to Log Cabin blocks, then four are stitched together for each square. Sashing, cornerstones and the easy-to-piece border complete the design.
The finished quilt is 60″ x 76″.

We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
