How to Make a Perfect 4-Patch Quilt Block
One of the easier quilt blocks to make, the four patch is a staple in many quilt patterns. This tutorial by April Rosenthal shows you how to make a perfect one.
With detailed step-by-step photos and instructions, the tutorial tells you everything you need to know. I especially like the section on getting the blocks to lay flat by opening up your seams. That is a great technique. It is also one that I need to try more often. I am notorious for skipping that step, but it really helps.
A four-patch can be used in so many design options. Since it appears in so many quilt patterns it is a good one to learn. This helpful tutorial will teach you.
