Gingham Quilt
Make this darling quilt in an hour! Just follow these 4 easy steps.
Read all instructions before beginning
Materials: *
1 yd Grey
½ yd White
2 ¼ yds Navy {this will cover your backing as well}
½ yd Mustard binding
42” x 51” piece of batting
Step 1.
Cut the following…
5”x 5” squares:
• 49 grey
• 20 white
• 30 navy
Binding Strips
• 5 – 2.5” x WOF strips
Step 2.
Assemble squares into two basic rows.
Row A: Alternate 6 navy squares with 5 grey squares.
Make 5 strips of this alternating combination
Row B: Alternate 6 grey squares with 5 white squares.
Make 4 strips of this alternating combination
Step 3.
Alternate Row A and Row B until all strips are sewn together.
Step 4.
Quilt. *Straight lines on either side of each seam keep this quilt in having the gingham pattern.*
Bind.
Finish!
Yields: one 40.5” x 49.5” crib/toddler quilt
*I used a combination of yardage and precuts. Using precuts will give you a decent amount of left over fabric, but I like that. Extra fabric = more fun projects to make:)

**WOF = Width of Fabric

I love this style of quilt and would like to make one for myself, say in a queen size. How much material would this take? How many squares of each?
Thanks

I could only get 27 squares of the navy from half a yard instead of the needed 30– order up!
