Sampler quilt tutorial

Blocks
The instructions to make the blocks are from crazy mom’s quilt-a-long.

Flying geese border
I used the No Waste Flying Geese method to make the border. As explained in Blocks & Swaps & Patterns & Tips.

Piano Keys sides border
The border is 8″ wide. The strips that make the border are 2 1/2″ inches when finished.

Back
The back is made of 8″ blue tone squares and 8″ wide strips of plain white 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)
