This Scrappy Block Has So Many Design Options
| July 13, 2020 | Quilt Blocks
It’s Great in More Limited Color Themes, Too!
This charming block is perfect for scraps and has so many design options. Its scrappy look is very appealing but also consider a more limited color palette.
Start with 1 1/2″ and 2 1/2″ squares. Make a few blocks and then play with layouts. Turn the blocks to create different effects.
We played a bit in Photoshop to create some examples. The first one, made with four blocks, would make a lovely wall or table mat (about 16 1/2″ square).
Or create an interesting stripe.
Here’s one idea for 16 blocks (about 32 1/2″ finished size). There are many other layout options as well.
The finished block, designed by Lori Holt from Bee in My Bonnet, is 8″ square.
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article).
