And I have had several people ask how to make this quilt in this exact layout of red/black/and white so here I figured rather than typing it again and again in emails, I will just add the info here ;)
And that's all for today ;) Thanks for popping in to share my newest quilt finish ;)
You are still making just 1 set layout of the block.
Here is how much you need of each of the three fabrics :)
Red - 2 3/4 Yards
8 Strips 6 5/8 x WOF - 53"
7 Strips 5 1/2 x WOF - 38 1/2" (Border)
White - 1 1/4Yards
12 Strips 2 1/2 X WOF - 30"
3 Strips 3 3/4" X WOF - 11 1/4"
Black - 2 Yards
12 Strips 2 1/2 X WOF - 30"
3 Strips 3 3/4" X WOF - 11 1/4"
8 Strips 2 1/2" x WOF - 20" (Binding)
Here is what you need to cut from each Fabric:
Your Fabric A Strips (24) 2 1/2" strips should be cut from Black and White
. . . (12) White 2 1/2" x WOF Strips and (12) Black 2 1/2" x WOF Strips
Your Fabric B squares (48) 6 5/8" squares should all be cut from Red
Your Fabric C Squares (48) 3 3/4" squares should be cut from Black and White
. . . (24) White 3 3/4" squares and (24) Black 3 3/4" squares
Your Fabric D Strips (7) 5 1/2" x WOF Strips should be cut from Red
Your Fabric E Strips (8) 2 1/2" x WOF Strips should be cut from Black
Then the piecing is just like the pattern . Just be sure in the Block Assembly to Strip Piece 2 White and 2 Black Strips together in alternating order of Black, White, Black White. Make Six Sets and sub-cut as directed.
When laying out your blocks, piece 2 Red B Triangles, 1 Black C Triangle, and 1 White C Triangle as shown in the below block diagram.
Then when piecing your Quilt Top, be sure and alternate your blocks as shown in the below Quilt Diagram paying close attention to the black and white triangles. They should alternate. Finally add your border ;)
I hope that helps everyone who wanted to make this quilt in the same fabrics and layout that I did ;) If you have any other questions, just let me know :)
And that's all for today ;) Thanks for popping in to share my newest quilt finish ;)
I hope you have a very Happy Quilting Day!!!
I love love love your quilt. When I went to Fat Quarter Shop, I couldn't find the pattern. Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteAhh, thanks so much Debbie ;) Just check back at Fat Quarter Shop in a few minutes. It will be up super soon ;)
DeleteGot it! Thanks for the inspiration.
DeleteWow, Melissa! How awesome! I can't believe how different our versions are by just changing fabrics.
ReplyDeleteLove this!
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome quilt!
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful. I like the hourglass block idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is so striking! Love the curvy quilting with the contrast of the very square piecing. :)
ReplyDeletewow that is beautiful, I love the red, black and white combo, classic yet cool.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! That is dramatic! Amazing version of the pattern... and exactly opposite of mine... so very fun to see!
ReplyDelete(p.s. Have I told you that I love using your bread recipe you shared)
How lucky that your quilt holder has three hands!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful in these colors!
ReplyDeleteAll your work is just so precise and crisp. Look at that piecing! And your choice of colors makes everything pop!
ReplyDelete<3 <3 <3 Love it! Just a pow!
ReplyDeleteI said on instagram but just needed to repeat myself, WOW. The dramatic change in this quilt just by fabric choice. I would never thought to do this combo, but I may not do a few just like this. I may be a theif, but I'll give you all the credit.
ReplyDeleteVery Nice!
ReplyDeletePut ULL on it instead and send it my way. Our colors are the same. :) I imagine I'll have to make my own, right? It's very striking and bold. You'll be the envy of everyone around you at HC. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteStunning!!! Love how bold and graphic it is, and I love your change of the corner squares to two colors instead of one. Great quilt!! Hugs, H
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa,
ReplyDeleteI just love this color combination - is there anything better than black and white and red? Love this quilt - it is really eye catching, and that wide border does make it seem like the center is just floating. Great job! ~smile~

ReplyDeleteOh! Wow!! I love your version best❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI have really enjoyed seeing all the variations of fabrics that the quilters are making. Color truly makes all the difference in the world. Your red, black and white is stunning. The quilting is nice too.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fun beautiful pattern.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors, very striking
Eye popping and so striking, love it!!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a bright and brilliant quilt! What gorgeous colours to really show off the pattern :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely quilt! Thank you so much for your machine quilting tutorial with the paisley motif. I watched it last year and now use that design on about 1/3 of the quilts I make. I love how it looks and people compliment me on the machine quilting. You're really an inspiration!
