    Take 5 minutes to choose 5 fabrics, cut 5/8 of a yard of each and in 5 hours you've made a quilt top!

    This is the way the advertising for the pattern describes it. I made a baby quilt, but didn't take photos. It is simple, and you don't have to match seams until you sew your blocks together.

    Hi,

    Take 5 is a great pattern! It goes together easy and you can either lay your blocks out the way the pattern shows, or you can mix them around until you find the layout pleasing to you. I have made several of them, also the baby version that is included in the pattern.
    You will like it!

    The Teacher's Pet is the Designer/Author. The orignal pattern came out about 4 to 5 years ago, but it has stayed very popular in my area due to how easy it is.

    I wondered where the title came from, because I sure couldn't come up with anything in the pattern that applied to the name! Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies. I saw it somewhere on one of the shop hops. I will have to get a pattern and make one. Anything easy is great!

    I have made two of these quilts and i DO Love making it. Its sew easy to make and the only thing I object to is its square. This is one I made for my grandson and he says I need to make it longer. So I would add another row to get it longer. I made a turning twenty that is now a turning 25 by adding five more fat quarters. Now that is a big quilt.
