In a breeze quilt

This is a quick technique to make 3 patch quarter square triangles.

This method results into a lot of bias edges. I recommend you starch your fabrics to stabilise the edges.

Quilt size: 36″ x 42″
Finished block size: 6 1/2″
Number of blocks: 20 arranged as 4 x 5

Fabric needs

9 Fat Quarters – see details on the fabric collections I used below.
7/8 yard for the border

Fabric collections:

Michael Miller Gingham aqua and leaf
Michael Miller Kitschy Cocktails
Michael Miller Pindot in black and blue

To make the quilt, mix the fat quarters and make 20 blocks following the video tutorial.

Arrange in 5 rows of 4 blocks each.

Border

From the width of fabric cut:

2 borders 5 1/2″ x 33″
2 borders 5 1/2″ x 36 1/2″

Sew the narrower borders to the sides first and the top and bottom borders next.

My book Turnabout Patchwork

“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.
