Chevron Quilt

 Recently a new phone entered my life, with a new camera. And unfortunately I have not been able to get my pictures transferred to my computer. So I will need to have my computer tech son help me. Until then I thought I would share an oldy but goody. I love my Chevron quilt, and this is a good tutorial on how to make it.

I watched a Youtube on making a Chevron quilt.  The demo was using a Layer Cake, but I thought I would try to make my own with 6" squares.


I picked out an assortment of blue and red fabrics.  Plus white for the background.

Cut 6" strips and then again into 6" squares.

 
Pair up a white square with one of the color fabric squares.  Sew all the way around.

With your trusty rotary, cut the sewn square in an X.
Press your seams to the dark fabric.
Line up the Chevrons and start sewing the blocks together.
 
I will work on these blocks and see how large this quilt will turn out.  I cut two yards of white background, and various amounts of the red and blue.  

Happy Quilting!
