1 Scandinavian Flowers Finished Size: 60 x 60 A two-tone quilt with clean, flowing lines makes of this a charming quilt in its simplicity.

In all cases you will need to join 2 pages (along the red lines) for the full-size block pattern. 3.

If you like, you can create your quilt with the exact same blocks as shown in the illustration on the first page. 4. Cut your background blocks a little bit larger than the required size to allow for any shrinkage during sewing. I suggest you cut these blocks 1½ to 2 inches bigger than the size indicated, and then trim to size (including seam allowances) after the designs have been appliqued. 5. Applique each of the designs using your applique method of choice. 6. Assembly and finishing instructions are provided on page 5.

Lay out the blocks in any arrangement you like, or use the illustrations below as a guide. 3. Join 12 of the blocks into 3 vertical strips of 4 blocks each. Join the remaining 9 blocks into 3 vertical strips of 3 blocks each. 4. Sew one of the 8½ x 6½ rectangles of Fabric A to the top and bottom of each 3-block strip. 5. Join all the strips, alternating the 4-block strips with the 3-block strips. This completes the quilt top. Quilting and Finishing: 1. Cut a piece of backing fabric and batting 3-4 inches larger than the quilt top. Sandwich the top (backing-batting-top) and baste the layers together using whatever basting method you prefer. 2. Quilt in the ditch to hold the layers securely together. Add any other decorative or fill-in quilting designs you like. 3. Once you have finished the quilting, block and square up the quilt. 4.
