MORE QUILT PATTERNS... IRISH CHAIN While this quilt looks like a traditional Single Irish Chain pattern, it is in fact based on the block known as Puss in the Corner. The design is made from two blocks using simple squares and rectangles. Traditionally Irish Chain quilts are made in two colours, but the design would also look attractive if the centre square incorporated a third colour using a large print. The plain alternate block is ideal for the person who loves quilting. JACOBS LADDER Jacob's ladder is a very old pattern and is also sometimes called the World's Fair Block. It is a design that can be made in a restricted range of colours, as we have done here, or it can he made as a multi-coloured scrap quilt. Because the colours can be changed in so many ways it suits either a boy's or girl's room. The quilt is made from one simple block of triangles and squares.   LOG CABIN Traditionally the centre square of the Log Cabin block was red, to represent the hearth or fireplace in the cabin. Today we think more about co-ordinating the colours to suit our decor and featuring special fabrics in the centre of each block. There are many ways of laying out log Cabin quilts: the design chosen here is called Barn Raising.   OHIO STAR OhioStar Both boys and girls love stars, and so did quilt makers one hundred years ago. The quilt in the photograph has been made from very traditional fabrics and colours, so it looks like a nineteenth-century quilt, but this design lends itself to many different colour choices. Brights and pastels, as well as the many modern designs available in quilt fabrics today, would suit an Ohio Star quilt. click here for more patterns click here to go to our secure ordering page
