Four Winds Quilt Pattern
Four Winds Quilt Pattern by Fancy Tiger Crafts
This quilt comes together quick as can be, thanks to the large scale of the patchwork and an ingenious & efficient method of making your flying geese blocks. It's simple enough for new quilters and is a great introduction to matching your points, as the large blocks are pretty forgiving.
The Four Winds quilt pattern includes 3 sizes:
- Large Throw (64 x 64")
- Twin (70" x 90")
- Queen/King (96" x 96")
FABRIC REQUIREMENTS
- Large Throw: 6 fat quarters, 2-2/3 yards background fabric, 4-1/4 yards* backing/binding fabric
- Twin: 6 fat quarters, 4-5/8 yards background fabric, 5-3/4 yards* backing/binding fabric
- Queen/King: 12 fat quarters, 6 yards background fabric, 8-1/4 yards* backing/binding fabric
*The method of binding in this pattern is back-to-front or self-binding—using the excess backing to wrap around to the front of the quilt. If you would prefer to finish your quilt with a more traditional 2-1/4 crossgrain strip binding, you will need an additional: (Throw) 1/2 yd, (Twin) 5/8 yd, or (Queen/King) 3/4 yd of binding fabric.
