Prairie Crossing Free Quilt Pattern by Julie Hendricksen
Description:
Prairie Crossing uses small fabric squares and background pieces to make two alternating block designs. Seventy-seven blocks of each design are arranged eleven blocks across and fourteen rows down, with a pieced border continuing the combination of prints and background fabric. The quilt finishes at 57 by 72 inches. Its fabric selection calls for pieces from twenty-eight fabrics, giving the repeated five-inch blocks many combinations while maintaining the same construction throughout the quilt.
