A simple grid is one of my favorite quilt layouts. It’s a classic for a reason! And it’s what you see on most of my multi-block quilt pattern covers.

Here are just a few examples. (Click on the image to go to that pattern.)

Those multi-block patterns only include materials lists and cutting instructions for three different sizes. And maybe you want to make a full quilt from a single block pattern? Like making this chameleon over and over again in every color of the rainbow!

The individual block patterns only include materials and instructions for one block.

That’s where my layout guides come in!

Each guide contains a materials list and cutting instructions for six different quilt sizes – from Itty Bitty Baby to King Size.

I’m working on similar guides for other layouts too! That way no matter what layout your pattern shows, you can easily use the blocks in a different design. Here’s what I have so far and what’s coming. . .
