SNOWMAN 4 PATCH (quilt top)





Piano key border




NEW !!!!! SNOWMAN 4 PATCH quilt top! Fabric: quality cottons that include prints, and solids.

Size is 58" x 74".

The scraps are 4" blocks sewn into a block and alternated with the snowman fabric.

Can be quilted as is, or add a border to make it larger. It has a narrow snowman fabric border, and then a scrap "piano key" border, but another border might make it the right size for your needs.

Once quilted can be machine washed gentle. I am an expert seamstress - the piecing of this top is quality, and I use a scant over 1/4" seams. I made this top in 2000 because I just thought the snowman fabric was too cute and I wanted to make a fun Christmas quilt just to do it .

 It has been stored hanging on a hanger in closet of kid/pet/smoke free home. I am downsizing and would like all the extra projects to find new homes for themselves to go to.

4 PATCH & BUTTONS (quilt top)

Four Patch Quilts are so much fun to make.  The fabric can be all thought out and coordinated, or scraps with alternate blocks of a solid fabric.....there is no end to what creativity can do with this pattern.

 Size is 64" x 80". Can be quilted as is, or add a border(s) to make it larger. It has been stored hanging on a hanger in closet of kid/pet/smoke free home.

I am an expert seamstress - the piecing of this top is quality, and I use a scant over 1/4" seams. I made this top in 1996 because I just thought the blue and pink button fabric was too cute and I wanted to try making a simple 4 patch quilt.

Since this one, I have made several other 4 patch of quilts and find it a simple, fun, and quick quilt to make.
