COMPLETELY Fat Quarter Friendly!

This quilt is designed to use Fat Quarters (FQ) with minimal waste. This is a “controlled improv” quilt pattern by nature but utilizes a system of “controlled freedom” for those who fear improv. The finished square is 4” sewn into the quilt. The pattern comes together very quickly because it utilizes the 8 at a time Half Square Triangle (HST) method and the 4 at a time Flying Geese (FG) method. Pattern is written for three sizes:

• Baby: 48” x 48” - 12 FQs

• Throw: 64” x 72” - 24 FQs

• Queen: 96” x 104” - 52 FQs
