Looks like it to me :)
MaryQuilts.com: Double 4 Patch
The pattern is called Hopscotch. Here is a blog with it on it.

If anyone does a Google search on this image above, don't click on the Pinterest link as it takes you to a blogspot address that is infected. My antivirus and malware software went crazy on it. Blogspot is getting really nasty with infections.
Looks pretty easy to me. The only thing that makes it hard is the hundreds of 4 patches you have to make!
Thank you Karen for the heads up . Just got our desk top back from shop due to virus and hackers . I am trying to be more careful !
Love the quilt, too.
Thanks so much ladies!! You all are the best!!!
I'm lucky MM is a computer guru or mine would have ended up in the computer hospital too! It was ugly!
Looks like you can make strip sets for the four patch, then cut squares the same size as the 4 patch. After that is all about the lay out.
What a beautiful quilt
That's the easy part for me. I make 4 patches whenever I feel a need to do mindless sewing. Have a couple of hundred ready to put into a quilt top right now. Just debating on the setting. Now copy777 gave me yet another idea. Decisions, decisions. ;)Quote:

If it is a baby quilt, using 2.5" strips is fine.
Oh my here comes another one I want to make!!!! My list will never end!
I like it in the Red shown in the first link. Really nice.
That would look nice in your house for Christmas!Quote:
