Four Patch quilt block
The Four Patch quilt block is the king block for every beginner quilter. It is often the very first block you learn when starting your quilting journey. I absolutely adore it — and its scrappy version is simply gorgeous!

By simply changing the placement of your fabric squares or introducing additional colors, you can create many variations of this block using the same basic method.
