This is a Quilt I made using Riley Blake Snow Leopard Double Nap Flannel Fabric designed by Amanda Niederhause.

Using 2 yards (or 12 rows) Cheater Print F13195-MULTI I cut out 66 “squares” blocks. From these blocks I selected a light shade and a dark shade, right sides together, marked a line diagonally and stitched a quarter inch from the line forming the half square triangle block.

Press, seams open (to avoid bulk) Trim block to 5.5” square.

Using 3/4 yard additional flannel fabric (blue snowman leopard) I Cut (22) 5.5” squares.

Lay out your 88 blocks as desired and sew your blocks together.

I wanted my quilt a little bigger so added a 6” border using 1 yard Rows of Snowmen F13192-CORNFLOWER.

Quilt the front, back and batting together.

Binding: 1/2 yard Ice Blue Snowflakes F13193-ICEBLUE Cut 6 strips 2.5” wide WOF.

Backing 4 yards of Denim Blue Plaid F13191-DENIM. (I actually pieced the backing using less fabric)

Finished size: 48” x 60”

If you already have a quilt pattern you like using 5” pre-cuts your could substitute the cheater print accordingly. I was challenging myself to see how much I could get out of the fabric available…

Please note: If you like my quilt and want to make one for yourself I have this fabric line on CLEARANCE, limited supply.
