Connie Tabor did a demonstration on a

Disappearing 4 Patch

Connie started with 6" squares, two colors that

have a high degree of contrast.  Sew together in

a block. This makes a 10 1/2 inch unfinished block.

Then she measured 1 1/2 inches from the seams on

each side and cut them.  You will have 9 pieces. 

Now you switch the solid squares on the

outside corners and rotate the center 1/4 turn.

And sew together

This is a Scrappy disappearing 4 patch.
You can Google Disappearing 4 patch
and Disapprearing 9 patch for video and written
instructions.

In Iowa it is popular to have Barn Quilts. She

really wanted a barn quilt, but there was a problem.

She doesn't have a barn.  She said these Barn Quilts are

2 sheets of 4' x 8' plywood painted like a quilt block.

She decided to make hers 4' x 4'.  She made four so she

could change with the seasons.

 This what it looks like on her garage.

Her garge face the highway.

BEAUTIFUL!
