    Default Looking for pattern Sidewalks Around the Blocks

    Hello! I am new to this forum. I want to make a wedding quilt like one I saw on here, entitled "Sidewalks Around the Blocks," which a member posted as a wedding quilt.

    Is that available as a pattern to use or purchase?

    Thank you!
    Karen

    It is a variations of the" Thinking outside the block or box" pattern from a a web site www.toadusew.com but their site is no longer active. It is part of Quilters Warehouse I think. The blocks are 1/4 Log Cabin blocks and I think there may be a diagram somewhere on QB. Maybe someone will post it.

    as Tartan said, it is all 1/4 log cabins. in EQ, i laid out 100 blocks [10x10 blocks] at 10" each. the finished layout looks like this:

    and the blocks are colored like this:

    Welcome from South Louisiana. I have a couple of the Thinking Outside the Box quilt kits to do. I may change the order of the darks and lights so that I come out with a Sidewalks quilt. The original Thinking Outside the Box floats already and by changing out the placements of the colors, it really becomes a 3-D quilt.
