This was a fun set of blocks to make. You pick how many blocks to stack and where to cut.
Just have fun!
Finished block

Cutting directions
For 1 block:
- 1 square, 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ in red fabric

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)
