Ribbon Quilt Block

I want to make a donation quilt for breast cancer awareness and was looking for a ribbon quilt block. I wanted a traditional pieced quilt block pattern (not paper pieced) for the ribbon block and couldn't find one. So I designed one.

This is a picture of my sample block. (I was just testing the pattern using scraps. I plan to buy new fabric for the donation quilt.) The Ribbon quilt block pattern is available here.

I think I will make a quilt combining the Ribbon quilt block with an Irish Chain Quilt Block. Here is a picture from www.MyWebQuilter.com of the quilt pattern I am considering.

  1. Thanks for the pattern. I've modified your idea just a bit and am using it to make a chemo quilt for my mom. It looks great and came together in a hurry.

  2. Where can I get this pattern? I was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer and would love to make one of these to remind myself to keep fighting!

Enter the size of your current quilt and some border sizes you are considering.  Click calculate to get quilt dimensions and fabric requirements.  Change the border sizes and recalculate as often as you want. 

Lawyer's Puzzle Quilt Block Pattern

I am on a roll adding more traditional quilt blocks to www.MyWebQuilter.com . I just added the Lawyer's Puzzle - also known as the Barrister's Block. A 24 block quilt using this block looks like this: You can find the free quilt block pattern here . I love this example of the Lawyer's Puzzle painted on a barn. BTW - Here in the USA there is significance to showing this pattern in green. It is the only green you will have left after paying your lawyer! Happy quilting! Amber
