Materials

Inspired by “Illusion in Neutrals” from designer Cheryl Malkowski of Cheryl Rose Creations
Quiltmaker: Laura Boehnke

To get the most variety in the blocks, quiltmaker Laura Boehnke made almost twice as many pieced triangles as she needed. Then she worked with combinations of pieced triangles on her design wall to find the most pleasing 12 blocks. The following instructions are for making 12 blocks with no extra.

2-1/4 yards total assorted green, white, and black prints (blocks)
3/8 yard solid black (binding)
1-5/8 yards backing fabric
55x43" batting

Finished quilt: 48-1/2x36-1/2"
Finished block: 12" square

Quantities are for 44/45"-wide, 100% cotton fabrics.
Measurements include 1/4" seam allowances. Sew with right sides together unless otherwise stated.
