I saw an antique quilt on Instagram and fell in love with it. You can see it if you click here. Isn’t it lovely? It is a simple square in a square quilt. I wanted to make a small one, but thought there must be a simpler way than adding all those triangles to the sides of the squares. So I pulled out this die.

And made a bunch of these.

Then I got out my tub of 2 1/2 inch squares.

And I ended up with this.

And yes, it doesn’t look like the original. Yet.
Stayed tuned for part two. Have a great day!

Can’t wait!! ~smile~ Roseanne
Very sweet! It’s nice to be able to make up your own pattern and actually make it your own in every way.:)
Looking great so far! My favorite part of the antique quilt is the plaid fabrics used…so interesting!
I love how it looks right now. Hugs
That is a clever way of piecing that!
Cool! i can see it. Love watching your progress.
Looking forward to seeing you work this out! I have never been a fan of of making square in a square blocks!!
Aren’t you the smart one, it’s just lovely and I love how you approach and honor the antique beauties with modern techniques.
