3d Blockhead Quilt

"3D quilts have a big visual impact, but they don't have to be difficult to make. Sometimes the easiest blocks to construct have the biggest pow! This quilt uses a simple 4-patch made with 2 half-square triangles and 2 solid squares. The background fabric matched with the border fabric is what gives this its 3-dimensional depth. You can easily make this quilt in a couple days. Play with fabrics to make this your own creation. It would be adorable in pastels for a baby quilt or patterned fabric to stand out even more."
