Sisters' Choice

This sampler-style quilt consists of only one block: Sisters' Choice. However, due to different dark- and medium-value fabric placements, they appear quite dissimilar to each other. Some blocks feature seven different fabrics, some have five or six and some only four, and in one block Keryn replaced some of the plain squares with pieced ones.

To make this quilt you will need 20 blocks. The instructions include three variations. Simply choose which variations and how many of each you want in your quilt.

The borders and sashings include 30 Nine Patch blocks; alternatively, you could swap them for 3½in squares.

Finished size: 193cm x 160 cm (76in x 63in) Finished block size: 10in square
