Patches of Life

Eleanor Burns Signature Quilt Pattern

designed by Teresa Varnes

A Quilt in a Day Company

Patches of Life is made with Nine-Patch, Triangle in a Square and Triangle Pieced Square Blocks. The Triangle in a Square blocks give this quilt the illusion of curves. You can finish the outside edge with a Straight, Wave or Sawtooth Border.

There are two sizes of blocks to choose from in Patches of Life. The Queen size quilt is made from 6" finished size blocks. The Nine-Patch uses 2 1/2" strips. Use a Jelly Roll or cut your own assortment of 2 1/2" strips. Triangle Pieced Squares and Triangle in a Square patches are made from 7" and 8" strips.

The Lap quilt is made from 4 1/2" finished size blocks. The Nine-Patch uses 2" strips. You can trim off a 1/2" from each Jelly Roll strip or cut 2" strips from yardage. Triangle Pieced Squares and Triangle in a Square patches are made from 5 1/2" and 7" strips.

These patches will not take you a lifetime!  Quilt with a friend and you will get the patches done in one evening. Teresa's design was inspired by the Barn Raising layout from the original Log Cabin book.  She used a combination of Nine-Patch blocks with Triangle Pieced Squares and Triangle in a Square patches to give this quilt a sharp look.  Instructions are included for Lap and Queen.
