Modern squares quilt

Modern square quilt

Thank you to Eleanor Marsden for the following pattern.

You will need:

  • 5 fat quarters in colours of your choice
  • 2m fabric for the background and bindings
  • 1 ½ m backing fabric
  • Wadding 45 “ x 54′

From each fat quarter cut:

  • 1 x 9“ square
  • 2 x 4½“ squares
  • 2 x 1½“ squares
  • 3 x 3½“ squares
  • 3 x 2½“ squares

From your background fabric cut 25 rectangles 9“ x 11”

Make 15 of Modern quilt block 1 and 10 of Modern quilt block 2.

Arrange your blocks in a pleasing way and sew together in strips first, then sew the strips together. Make the sandwich, quilt and bind.
