A quick intro
This QAL uses the Accuquilt QUBE sets and companion set,
I’m using the 8″ QUBE + companion and the 12″ QUBE
There will be 48 blocks and one block per week, which I will list on Monday morning.
For the 8″ QUBE+companion set I’m using this FQ bundle of 20 FQs and about a yard of solid white.
I also decided to do a 12″ BATIK version where I’m using browns and black and a bit of light blue in the prints too, not sure when I will stop with that quilt as I’m using leftover yardage from another project and the blocks are big 🙂 plus I don’t have the companion set in that size!
If you don’t have the companion set, that’s ok, you can either choose to skip that block or modify it to work with the regular QUBE set.
The color placement on the blocks are very random and at the end block #1 doesn’t have to touch #2, you can move them around before sewing the top together.
If using the 6″ QUBE set, a 6×8 layout will be 36 x 48 plus a border
If using the 8″ QUBE set, a 6×8 layout will be 48 x 64 plus a border
If using the 6″ QUBE set, a 6×8 layout will be 54 x 72 plus a border
If using the 6″ QUBE set, a 6×8 layout will be 72 x 96 plus a border
As far as fabrics go, it’s really up to you!
As I mentioned above, I’m using a FQ bundle for the 8″ blocks plus white and it should be fine for 8″ and 6″, but since we’re shuffling the blocks around at the end, I can always add more if I need to!
For 9″ blocks you might want more than 20 FQs and for 12″ blocks if you are making them all, AT LEAST 1/2yd then of 16-20 fabrics or more, it’s hard to tell, as it depends on where you are using the fabrics on the blocks and how often you use them 😉
Just have fun and try it!!
I’ll have a linky up every week too and there’s also FB and pinterest!
