Sue's Quilt

 

Sue's Quilt 

A friend from our quilting group loved this pattern, she only had a photo of the quilt so I said I would try and work out a pattern for her, as she wanted to make the quilt for her granddaughter. We didn't know the name of the quilt or who designed the original. I am going to call it Sue's quilt.

Block sizes

Finished 12 inches x 12 inches square 

Unfinished 12.5 inches x 12.5inches square(with 1/4 inches seams) 

Queen or King Size

She will need to make 72 blocks (8 x 9) Across and Down. The quilt should measure 96 inches x 108 inches without borders. To make it larger she will just add 2-inch, 3-inch, 4-inch, and 5-inch borders to all sides of the top.

Block One

Unfinished 12.5 inches x 12.5 inches square(with 1/4 inches seams) 

To make Block One.

Cut One -  12.5-inches x 12.5-inches square (White Main Colour)

Cut Four - 5.5-inches x 5.5-inches squares (Faun check Fabric BG colour).

Block Two

Unfinished 12.5 inches x 12.5inches square(with 1/4 inches seams) 

To make Block Two.

Cut Eight       4.5-inches x 4.5-inches Squares (White Main Colour)

Cut One         4.5-inch x 4.5-inch Square (Rusty Brown Colour) for the centre square. 

Cut Sixteen    1.5-inches x 1.5-inches Squares (Faun check Fabric BG colour) to snowball the corners.

Cut Four        1.5-inches x 1.5-inches Squares (White Main Colour) to snowball the centre square corners.

When you join these two blocks together into rows you get a secondary pattern, which looks complicated but in fact, these are two very easy blocks to make.

Started 17th Jan 2023. I will update this post when she finishes it and posts the photos. 

The first 3 Blocks are done the pattern is working out well.

Until next time 

Happy Quilting
