Playing with four patches was so much fun when I combined double and triple 4 patch blocks HERE. that I thought I would play with some double four patches and add some half square triangles, also known as 'hst' in quilt lingo. So I used the block above to make these layouts...

And then I decided to combine the two blocks (which are the same pieces, just sewn together differently) and came up with some really fun options...

I actually came up with about 20 but these were my favorites. Which one is your favorite? This whole EQ thing is addictive. LOL

Isn't it so fun to play with a single block or two and find all the possibilities.
ReplyDeleteI think that it is great to use simple to make such great designs. #9 is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteSo...is there going to be a book on 4 patches? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI've been making them as we work through the RSC colors. I might have to step up my game so I have enough to try one of these patterns!
I’m rather staid and traditional, so I like 1 and 5 the best! But several of them are really interesting. If I had stunt sewers (hehe), I might try them all! 🤣
ReplyDeleteIt's very funny! as a game! Do you have EQ8 version? Love white and red quilts!
