I love quick modern quilts and I love using the stack and cut technique.
The technique can be applied to different types of blocks: strips, log cabin, four patch and so on.
Let’s play!
Strata quilt
- Quilt size: 45″ x 59″
- Unfinished block size: around 6″ x 8″
- Number of blocks: 60 arranged as 6 x 10
Fabric needs
- 10 assorted fat Quarters – see details on the fabric collections I used below.
Fabric collections:
- Michael Miller Gingham cadet
- Michael Miller Family Fun Day
- Michael Miller Pindot in black
- Michael Miller Kitschy Cocktails
To make the quilt, mix the fat quarters and make 60 blocks following the video tutorial.
Arrange in 6 rows of 10 blocks each.
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.
- Order Turnabout Patchwork on Amazon
- Order Turnabout Patchwork directly from Martingale (e-book only)

Sewn Up 
Thanks so much for the great ideas. Those are all great ways to use up the many small pieces of fabrics waiting to be put into a quilt. Your many ideas never fail to amaze me! Thanks so much, Teresa!
