Tumbling Along


This month's mystery quilt is quick and fun.  We did two baby size versions using only four blocks in a couple of hours this morning before we opened up the shop. 

Let's get started.

Sew a 1 ½ x 6 ½ inch green strip between a 6 ½  inch square and a 6 ½ x 9 ½ inch rectangle.  Repeat for all 12 blocks.

 

 
Sew a 1 ½ x 9 ½ inch green strip between a 9 ½ inch square and a 6 ½ x 9 ½ inch rectangle.  Repeat for 12 blocks.


 

Sew a 1 ½ x 16 ½ inch strip in between the two units created above.  Repeat to create 12 blocks.

 
Sew a 1 ½ x 16 ½ inch sashing strip between three blocks to form a row.  Turn each block ¼ turn from the previous block. 

 
Create four rows with three blocks in each.  Sew a 1 ½ inch green strip between each row.  Sew a 1 ½ inch green strip all around the quilt.  Follow with the 3 inch final border. 

(The colors are not quite right in the photo below but you get the idea.) 



Quilt as desired.  Bind and enjoy!
Here are the fabrics for November's mystery quilt.  There will be some cream/off white background fabric as well.
