108 x 108
This pattern is similar to a Jacob's Ladder quilt, but it is called Buckeye Beauty. It can be made from a 4 patch that has two HST and two smaller 4 patches. I laid all my smaller blocks out on the design wall and sewed them together by rows. I felt I had more control of color placement and I didn't have to get up and iron each set of 4 blocks.
This was a custom request by one of my customers. She wanted a quilt with purple and gray with some other colors thrown in. We chose to add blue and sage green colors. I used 11 fabrics of each purple and gray and only 7 of greens and blues. 36 different fabrics in all.
If you're wanting one just like this one in the colors of your choice, I've listed it in my etsy shop.
