I love this quilt pattern it’s so simple and just a bit quirky. The square on the bottom turns into the base of the quilt block. The finished size of this quilt block is six inches by six inches.
This quilt pattern block is just a fun one to do, it’s everything we love about quilting, squares and triangles. A great scrap quilt block to use up any of that fabric you have laying around.
