Easy Quilt Blocks

Category: <span>Easy Quilt Blocks</span>

We’ve got free quilt patterns for easy quilt patterns that only look difficult!

Make beautiful quilts with these free quilt patterns that are perfect of quilters of all skill levels.

Many of these quilt patterns can start with jelly rolls, fat quarter bundles, or layer cakes to make them even easier!

Making your first quilt? An excellent choice would be to start with a small baby quilt and make some patch blocks. There are so many different ways to make each of the easy blocks look different.

Combine several of these blocks to make an intricate pattern (that looks hard!).

Play around with a variety of fabrics and fabric placements to make your quilt top.

No matter what, each of these blocks can make beautiful quilts.
