APQ Quilt A Long – Go Four It

How exciting. APQ are having another quilt-a-long. This time we are all going to be making a variation on a 4-patch quilt. Lissa Alexander, April Rosenthal and Edyta Sitar have all designed a glorious
4-patch quilt for you to make. 
April has created a fun 4-patch block in a summery combination of prints, which when rotated makes a beautiful mosaic design.

Edyta has used her signature scrappy style to create an elegant 4-patch design on point, floating in strips of a feature fabric.

Lissa has created an alternate 9-patch block using 4-patch units. Floating on a soft background, the rainbow scrap blocks on point, make a dreamy quilt.
