#apqQuiltalong: Go FOUR it!

Have any of you heard of a little magazine called American Patchwork and Quilting?
I kinda thought so.
Well, I am honored to be a part of their ohsofun quilt along this year! Last year I followed along as hundreds, probably thousands of you made Lissa’s “Tone It Down!” quilt, and was jealous that I couldn’t drop everything and join right in too! (It’s still on my bucket list of somedays…)
This year, the brilliant folks at American Patchwork and Quilting noticed a trend, and decided to jump on it! Four patches are making a comeback in a BIG way, and that’s what this year’s #apqQuiltalong is all about!
Choose one of three quilts to make (or make all three!), found in the April 2015 issue of American Patchwork and Quilting–on newsstands February 3rd.
