Four patch pattern
I am looking for a simple four patch pattern. What I am looking for is 4
blocks of 2 colors, with a third color making up the corners. This is to be set on point. Anyone help me out with a pattern? Sindir |

Changed my mind on this one already....Gonna go with a plain four patch,
with sashing in between blocks. Question is, if the finished squares are 8", and the quilt is to be twin size, what size do I make the sashing? Sindir |

Sindir,
Make a few blocks and position them on the sashing yardage. Place them two inches apart and decide if you like that. Try a few sizes of spacing. Remember, the blocks at that point will be a tad larger ... 8.5" ... while the finished top will show 8" blocks. Still, this should help. *I* would go with two inches; an evenly divisible number always makes a pleasing composition, IMO. What colors?

DS (3.5) picked out the fabric for his "big quilt." There are two blue
fabrics with glitter and stars. One is multi-colored stars and the other is silver outlines. The sashing fabric is a dark red/maroon marbled type fabric. Very interesting combination, but looks like it's actually going to work well. Sindir "Pat in Virginia" wrote in message news:vwY%c.30355$Ka6.27579@okepread03...
