This is my 4-Patch Stacked Posies top completed to the flimsy stage. This is a small piece–44 inches square.

The photos were taken inside because it is raining so the colours are not exactly true to the original.

This top only used three fabrics:

1. A floral fabric – used for the 4-patches and border

2. Accent fabric – burgundy in my quilt – used for the narrow border around the 4-patches, corner stones, and narrow inner border

3. Sashing fabric – green in my quilt

Cutting details:

– My fabric had a 13 1/4″ repeat and my squares used for the 4-patch blocks were cut 3 1/4″ square.

– The narrow border that frames the 4-patches was cut 1″ wide and finished at 1/2″.

– The corner stones are cut 1 1/2″ square and finish 1″ square.

– The sashing is cut 1 1/2″ wide and finishes at 1″ wide.

– The border is cut 6 ” wide and finishes at 5 1/2″ wide.
