Gretchen Free Quilt Pattern by Debby Kratovil
Gretchen Free Quilt Pattern by Debby Kratovil
Description:
Gretchen pairs contrasting prints in triangle blocks that turn a quarter rotation from one neighbor to the next. Debby Kratovil designed the 58-inch square quilt with Sugar Sack fabrics. Large half-square-triangle units receive smaller triangles before the block halves are trimmed and joined. Twenty-five blocks form a five-by-five center, framed by a narrow inner border and a wide outer border. The print requirements are given as fat quarters.

Gretchen Free Quilt Pattern by Debby Kratovil quilt pattern summary
- Cut the two square sizes and keep matching prints together. Pair the larger squares with contrasting fabrics and mark their diagonal sewing guides.
- Sew and split the large square pairs into half-square triangles. Add the smaller triangles in the specified reversed positions, trim the lower edges and join the block halves.
- Arrange the blocks in five rows, rotating adjacent blocks a quarter turn. Join the rows, measure the center and attach the inner and outer borders.
- Press the top, layer it with batting and backing, and baste. Quilt as desired and add the binding.
