There's something about a red and white quilt, isn't there? Ever since I started quilting, every time I saw one I knew eventually I'd make one for myself. But in my mind, it couldn't be just any quilt pattern, it had to be a star pattern and a traditional one at that. After recently finishing…

This computer-illustrated L-Block quilt was completed on Electric Quilt software. I haven't made this arrangement into an actual quilt yet. This is an "original" arrangement, meaning I came up with it without seeing anyone else's similar design, but it is so simple that I'm sure hundreds of others have come up with a similar design. Feel free to copy this one, just don't sell the pattern. I make a lot of charity quilts from L-block designs, as they are so quick and simple to do. This one requires 48 L-blocks, half with the square being light and the two rectangles dark. The remaining 24 blocks have these colors reversed. Add borders as desired; I liked the contrasting mitered borders with this off-center design. Here are some other L-block arrangements (some actual quilt tops, others just computer illustrations): www.flickr.com/search/?q=allthatpatchwork+L-block
