I made several patriotic potato chip quilts with red in the center, white on round two, and blue on round three. You can use plenty of fabric scraps and minimize the actual amount of patriotic fabric needed. Having the second round in a specific color gives the eyes a place to rest and l highly recommend this tip.
I really like this block. It would make a great scrappy quilt. I've heard it called the 'potato chip' block. You can't make just one. Thank you for your video. 🙂♥️
Thanks for sharing this! I love that there’s no need to be concerned about nesting seams … I’ll be making this with my scraps. Do you have other videos? I just ‘found’ you this morning. 🧵
Oh! the Potato Chip Block! I thought I recognized it... such a fun block to make. You could also use low volume fabrics on the inner rows for a fun twist.
I am loving your videos and blocks. I have one humble request and that is to include the size of your intended finished block and the dimensions of your squares in the description. ❤️
❤ my favorite block. I call it the potato chip block. I use it to make dozens of charity quilts. I use denim from old jeans and flannel shirts. It doesn’t require a lot of finishing, and maybe I’ll see in on some homeless person. Jo Ann😊😊
Jo Parrott published this block design in her 2010 book "Favorite Traditional Quilts Made Easy". That book is available thru Amazon, as well as "Big Book of Scrappy Quilts", a compilation, which also includes the block. This information was included in the March 5 video "Scrappy Rectangles" by Inspired Quilting by Lea Louise. It's fun to track it back as far as we can--who knows how long quilters have been enjoying it! Everyone adds new interest, but Conquering Mount Scrapmore made it famous! The Cut and Create video uses such lovely fabrics and her block turned out so beautifully. I will be back for more.
Thank you for showing this tutorial. I'm going to use my little scraps up and see how it turns out. I really enjoy all your videos but rarely make a comment. Best wishes. Maggie J. from England.
Beautiful block. I notice you didn't follow the traditional Courthouse steps color distribution = North & South steps are dark fabrics and East & West steps are light fabrics. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out the "Broken" steps idea. 🙃
I’m new to quilting and find that I suck at joining so that the points meet perfectly. I think I would like this. Would love to see it just all one piece and also doing the blocks and maybe adding a solide color to join.
Great block! Do you find the seam guide you are using to be very helpful? Maintaining a proper quarter inch seam is so important for blocks with lots of pieces.
So excellent, I'm now completely inspired to do this. I have the usual zillion scraps (that will be my goto) but, what fabric did you use? Also really very pretty! So glad I found you. - I'm drawn to the less "complexicated", I love the joy and beauty of the simpler blocks - Churndash is a favorite (but i also love Sister's Choice 😊). Have a very pretty day! ❤ Abigail, in beautiful New Hampshire
I’m going to make this but to make more than 1 block it into a quilt should I use washing between blocks or just sew the blocks together? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Did you say you can just keep adding this size piece(s) to make a larger block than you have here? I’d love this to be a table topper too! Also, I cannot find this pattern on Pinterest. Is there a way to link it? TIA
Add to it by 3 down left, 3 down right, 4 across top, 4 across bottom which makes 16 inch finished square Continue by adding 1 to each of above numbers and 4 to resulting square
I have been searching on Pinterest also. The only quilt that looks just like this they call it potato chips quilt. I still haven’t found the pattern for that one lol
Did you say 2-1/2 by 4-1/2 rectangles. I hope so 😅. I have a whole bunch leftovers to make quite a few of these blocks. Looks like fun, just as soon as I get my household goods moved.😊
Thank you so much. I am new to your channel and love what you are doing. I cannot seem to find the posted picture. Is it someplace like Facebook?@@CutandCreate
You should review your recording before posting. Everytime you switch back to the machine there is a terrible glare for a few seconds. That glare is annoying and hurts my eyes. I like the pattern alot.

Yes I’ve heard that too!💙💜

Love this block! I’m going to start building a box of 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 scraps and just cut them as the scraps appear.
Great idea! The cutting of these all at once was a lot💙
I like this type of quilt. It looks fast and easy, and I don’t line the seams up, like in traditional quilts. Thanks for sharing
🩷💜
Oh how neat! I have been looking for something scrappy to do and this is PERFECT! Thanks for a great tutorial.....happy sewing to all!
You are so welcome!
Glad I am not the only one block wonder😊 I like to chain piece but if do too many, I find myself off in wonderland🤦🏻♀️Very pretty
Same💙💜

Love this block. I like the ifea that i dont have to match seams!!! ❤ Thank you
You make this look so easy. I have a lot of 21/2 inch strips and can start cutting them out and use them as leaders and Enders. Thanks for the video.

Such a pretty block, and your instructions are great!! Thanks so much for sharing of your time and talents.
Thank you 💙❤️

This potato chip block has taken on a life of it's own. I hope you have a great day!
it certainly has, Brenda. Bet you didn't expect this when you created this block.

Beautiful! I have also heard this block referred to as the Potato Chip Block. I have no idea how it got this name.

Because you can't make just one😊

Very pretty block. I looked on Pinterest but couldn't find the page you showed - do you have a link?
I had the same problem 😂
I am looking… I can’t find it now😬 if I do I’ll link it
I want to have a go, I'm new to patchwork and I really like it.

❤❤❤очень красиво,спасибо большое !!!😊😊😊🎉

My church group made a similar one that we called Crayon Box though outside rows had one seam each. Tyfs 🩷
I’ll have to look that one up❤️
Great block! Do you find the seam guide you are using to be very helpful? Maintaining a proper quarter inch seam is so important for blocks with lots of pieces.
Thank you, yes I do find it helpful 💜
Wow love this ! Thank you for sharing ! 😊
Great way to use up scraps.
Yes!!!💛🩵

This is bountiful blooms…💛🩵
Gorgeous block.

I’ve never seen anyone sew with their needle all the way to the left before. What is your reason for doing so? Just curious.
It’s just the default on my machine and I never remember to change it
Is this also called the potato chip block?
Yes I have heard it called that too!
Fun block
A great block. Thanks!
Thank you 🩵
will you please share the layout sheet you flashed at the beginning?
I did post a picture of it on my channel… I can’t find where I got it from!
Awesome block. Thank you! ❤
Thank you ❤️💜
I’m going to make this but to make more than 1 block it into a quilt should I use washing between blocks or just sew the blocks together? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I would not use sashing I would just turn every other block do that still no seams match up🩵
Did you say you can just keep adding this size piece(s) to make a larger block than you have here? I’d love this to be a table topper too! Also, I cannot find this pattern on Pinterest. Is there a way to link it? TIA
Add to it by 3 down left, 3 down right, 4 across top, 4 across bottom which makes 16 inch finished square
Continue by adding 1 to each of above numbers and 4 to resulting square
Yes just keep going around by adding a block to each side💛
I have been searching on Pinterest also. The only quilt that looks just like this they call it potato chips quilt. I still haven’t found the pattern for that one lol
@@tinaramos606 I posted the picture of the paper I have but I can’t find it again either 😬

I forgot to ask you the other day…..what size was the block when you got done sewing it all together ?
It is a 12 inch finished block
Thank you ! I can’t wait to see what you make with it !
Thanks so much !
Is it possible to download the written instructions?
I’m sorry I can’t find it again but you could screenshot the photo and print it from there.
Love it

I luv the pattern but can't find it. Can you attach a link authors name..please
I tried but can’t find it so I posted pictures of the page I have and a book that it is in too.
Very pretty block. I love simple, and scrappy is just the best! It's makes for easy and relaxing sewing. Thanks for the great tutorial.

I love the block, but you could've eliminated half the time by not showing every piece sewn. speed it up a little.....thanks though!
Thank you🧡 I could have but I’ve had more requests to leave it in that to take it out!
