Turn 4 Patches Into 16
Now that the holidays are past, there is more time for sewing. I have returned to working on my red and white quilt which was started last year. This block is commonly referred to as the Disappearing Four Patch. I don't get it. The finished block is 16 patches. Lol.
I am using as many red and white prints that I can find in order to have a scrappy look. Twenty-five blocks are completed.
This photo is an example of the layout that I will use.
I surprised myself on how I figured out the order of how to sew and press to get all the intersections to meet and twist so they lay flatter.
This week, I am excited to link for the first time to One Monthly Goal at Elm Street Quilts. I need a motivational deadline. This is the link up: Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal January Linkup. My January Goal is to complete 20 more blocks which will add to a total of 45.

Look at you! Figuring out the twisting order for these! These will look really nice assembled.
I love this pattern. And red and white quilts are a fave. Good luck.
What a great block. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck with your project.
Great job on the blocks. Looking forward to see what your quilt ends up looking like.
I adore red and white quilts and have been collecting reds for awhile to do one. I love your blocks and they look so perfectly sewn. This will be so beautiful when all put together!
I like your scrappy mix of red fabrics a lot, not to mention your beautifully ordered seams!
