Bad Girl Quilt Along – Week 5 – Large 4-patch Blocks
This week is a pretty easy week. Fifteen 4-patches. No biggie at all! If you are a bit behind this might be a catch up week as well for you. This of course is one of my favorite steps.

This fabric grouping was inspired by my second Bad Girl quilt and because I was asked for the blues so much and as you've probably realized I can't say no to a good navy. I've made two of the Good Girl quilts with all the blues. It ...
