Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for constructing quilts. A series of blocks are utilized with each block including six faces. Each face of each block is includes a predetermined pattern. The blocks are arranged such that the upper surfaces of the blocks define a quilt pattern which is used as the basis for the overall design of the quilt. Individual quilt components may constructed and then connected together in accordance with the quilt pattern defined by the upper surfaces of the blocks. As an alternative approach, the quilt pattern defined on the upper surface of the blocks may traced onto a sheet of paper, with the tracing subsequently used to define the quilt pattern.
