About the Quilt Block Pattern

Philadelphia Pavement is a quilt block with the traditional Shoo Fly design at its center. Shoo Fly is surrounded by a frame and corner squares.

I've included two assembly options:

  • Construct the blocks with individual patches -- best for using your stash to assemble blocks from an assortment of fabrics.

  • Strip piece some components -- a good choice if you want to make many identical blocks.

Both options include quick pieced half square triangle units.

The block above is made with a dusty-pink tone-on-tone print, combined with a small scale floral with dusty pink and an off white print with tiny green dots. Alter fabrics to suit your needs.

You'll find a Philadelphia Pavement quilt pattern, with yardages, on page 3.

Finished Block Size: 10" x 10"
