Bridal Path + 9 to 4

Posted Wednesday, June 9th, 2010 in Fabrics, Patterns, Quilt Blocks, Quilt Guilds, Quilting | Tags: , , , , ,

I won six Bridal Path blocks at the Appleseed Quilters Guild meeting on June 1. I bought white fabric with black polka dots  to use as plain blocks between the pieced blocks and I purchased black with mini  dots to use for binding. When I got home I realized I didn’t have enough of the white to make four 12 1/2 inch squares. Not wanting to wait until I could go shopping again, I decided to use the fabric I had and made four pieced (9 to 4) blocks instead of the plain squares. By cutting the binding a bit smaller than usual, I had just enough to make the binding.

Very creative! I think I like it better than your original plan.

I fell in love with this quilt. Is there a pattern somewhere I can purchase or share? Thank you, Joanne Hall

Joanne, there is no pattern for the quilt. The bridal path blocks are from Quilter’s Cache and the connecting blocks are nine patches that are cut into quarters, turned and sewn together to make a 12 inch block.
