I'm always amazed at the patience of so many quilters who make those amazing quilts out of tiny bits of fabric. I don't think I will ever get to that stage but I sincerely admire those who have that ability to spend hours on their creations. Personally, I am a fan of quick quilts and I love trying to speed up the process of what I am creating hence why I love this method of creating a 4-patch quilt block. It is quick and easy to put together without having to cut up tiny blocks and piece them all together
