Left and Right FPP Quilt Block

July 4, 2024 By A Spoonful of Sugar - Leave a Comment

Are you new to foundation paper piecing? The Left and Right Blocks are beginner friendly and the perfect place to start to learn the basics of foundation paper piecing. Each block consists of three fabrics. When you make a combination of left and right blocks, you can achieve a variety of effects from the way you lay out the blocks.

The block above is made using 4 left blocks to create a pinwheel effect.

The block above uses two left and two right blocks.

This is a fun block to experiment with different layouts and is a great way to use your scraps. I used a summery palette of lime, fuchsia and teal in these samples.

Like all of my FPP Quilt blocks, the Left and Right Quilt Block comes in a variety of sizes. Blocks include: 2 inch, 3 inch, 4 inch, 5 inch, and 6 inch. This makes it ideal for many applications including: pillows, mini quilts, quilts, bags, table runners and more.

You can find our 24 page Left and Right Quilt Block ePattern in our Pattern Store and Etsy Shop for immediate download.

Check out more of our FPP Quilt Blocks here. We currently have more than 40 FPP Quilt Blocks in our collection and this is growing. Check back regularly to see our latest blocks.

In today's reel, I'm making my free Threaded Tokens pattern and showing the cutting and sewing process.

For this version, I used the new SOHMO decorative scissors to create modern scalloped and zigzag edges. They add such a lovely finish and instantly elevate the look of these quick little makes.
