Modern Quilting Building Blocks

Updated: Jan 2, 2021

Ever wonder how to make small blocks that are embedded in a modern quilt? It is a simple technique that is simple and quick!



Start with strips of fabric that have been sewn together to make your own striped material. Then cut the striped into combined stripes. When this is attached to materials and blocks, some of the same colour, they appear to float inside the larger piece of material. This can be seen in the above photo with the blue and grey squares.


Tiny squares,fast and simple!
