jewel box- a four patch block




This block uses simple subunits that are pieced into a quadrant and then  finally put together into a block.  Sometimes the quadrant is called Jewel Box instead.  The block is usually set edge to edge rather than with settings to allow the secondary patterns to form.  It is also an ideal quilt to make from scraps built up over time as it uses simple nine patch and half square triangles that are the same size, I use four patch enders and leaders during other projects (an idea first heralded by Bonnie K Hunter) and so I have a stash of these simple subunits on hand.
