Quilt Shot Block #84 ~ Disappearing Four Patch

Disappearing 4 Patch

This is most likely already out there, but I created this one on my own without directions.

Starting with a 4 patch.

For a 12½  block, use 7½ inch squares because you will lose some width in cutting block apart.

Cut 2 inches off in the following order:

 left and right

and then top an bottom.

 Rotate center 90 degrees (so the light corner is next to dark fabric).

Sew pieces back together, short sides first, then the longer sides.

Trim sides.

***********************

Using Photoshop Combine Tool, here's a look at possible quilt layouts using this block.

No blocks were rotated.

Some blocks were rotated.
