Free Printable Straight Block Setting
The straight block setting is simple really.
This will help you quickly put together quilts using specific block sizes. Use it to determine the size you want the quilt to be when you are finished…and the size of blocks you are going to start with.
Here’s a quick tip: You don’t need to have solid fabric for the squares, they can be a pieced block. That’s right. Pick through that pile of quilt blocks that are leftover from another project and toss those into the mix.
You’ll have a quilt finished in no time and usually without a whole lot of cost either.
