CHOOSING
YOUR COLORS
The magic of these blocks really comes to life with the
fabric choices! Try alternating fabric colors, or add an extra
challenge with patterns, which can make intricate looks if laid
accordingly! With accenting embroidery details and floral
or swirling motifs, the finished result is a beautiful block that
can be turned 2 ways to create new and equally complexlooking
patterns without any extra hassle!
FABRICS NOTIONS
We drew inspiration
from the classic
Americana red, white,
and blue theme,
selecting a mix of linens
as well as solid and
patterned cottons to
add variety.
Once you have selected fabrics for your blocks, it’s
time to build a color palette. Use your fabrics to get
matches, then add coordinating tones, as well as some
contrast for elements like vines or leaves.
Quarter Turn Quilt | Mix & Match Quilting Collection | 9
Just as with most quilt
blocks, you will need a
good pair of appliqué
scissors, some tape
for securing folds, and
a rotary cutter and
ruler for cutting fabrics
and trimming out your
finished blocks!
