Uh oh, a spool is unraveling! Refresh and try again.
Description:

American Blues builds a rectangular center from broad fabric strips and surrounds it with several kinds of pieced borders. Half-square triangles, small pinwheel units and corner-triangle strips give the successive borders different structures. The outer arrangement includes long rows of small triangle units, and the pattern specifies fussy cutting for one border fabric. Made with the Indigo Dyed collection, the completed quilt measures 56 by 68 inches.

  1. Join the broad center strips and rectangle in the illustrated order, then add the first framing strips around the center.
  2. Make the large half-square triangles and join them into the first border strips. Construct the angled strips and small pinwheel units for the next borders.
  3. Piece the corner-triangle strips and the long repeated-unit borders. Make the smaller half-square triangles and arrange the outer strips according to the diagrams.
  4. Attach each border in the prescribed sequence around the center. Layer and quilt the finished top, then join and attach the binding strips.
