Re-post from 2012 I’ve been in Florida having a ball. I love it there and to me there is nothing better. I took a little quilt with me, I love quilting with the group in our area and
I’ve not hand quilted for some time, here’s the quilt I took and it’s pattern for you !
This quilt pattern is named Autumn Trails, but to me it’s a triangle quilt pattern. You will need a lighter color background to keep the pattern in the quilt block. Autumn Trails – Finished size six inches by six inches.
Cut 2 Background – 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ Cut 2 Colored – 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ Make Triangles
Cut 1 Colored – 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ Cut 1 Colored – 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ Make Triangles
Hanging over a cabinet door at an antique shop I found this quilt. I made it into a quilt pattern for you ! I call this a simple pin wheel quilt pattern. Notice how perfect this center of the quilt block is and when I unfolded to another block, just a bit off and THAT’S OK !
