Greek Cross

The tutorial for the Greek Cross quilt block is up!  This is a fairly easy block but can be simply stunning with the right colour combination. 

This quilt block is a great beginner’s block because it’s a traditional nine patch made up of half square triangles (HSTs), squares and rectangles.

Nancy: to make the Greek Cross as a 6" block, cut your 4 7/8" squares at 2 7/8", cut your 4.5 inch square at 2.5" and cut your 4.5x2.5" rectangles at 2.5x1.5". Feel free to email me directly if I can be of further help!

Thank you so much for posting these! I have been looking for "bible" blocks, especially ones that are rotary cut!
