Granny Patch Quilt Pattern – all the details!

Meet Granny Patch! A modern patchwork take on the traditional crocheted granny square. . I’ve had this design in my head and drafted on my computer for a few years now. I’ve played with it a little here and a little there and I decided last fall that this would be the first Lo & Behold pattern of 2023. Better yet, we would officially release it on my Granny’s birthday, March 15th.

You’re going to love sewing this together! .

Instead, you’re sewing strips together in a certain order then cutting them apart to create the rows of your blocks. (Can I get an amen??) There are also nesting seams so you don’t have to fuss or stress about everything perfectly lining up as you are sewing. It really is a fun block to assemble! . . . I don’t know about you, but I always love seeing crocheted afghans and blankets folded up on the back of a chair or at the foot of a bed. I wish I could say that I had an heirloom afghan that inspired this quilt, but after watching all seasons of Parks & Rec about 10 times, seeing one on the back of Ann’s couch over and over definitely made me fall in love with the granny square. Then when we moved to Black Mountain and started leasing studio space above the Black Mountain Yarn Shop, I found myself surrounded by even more granny squares, which got me that much more excited about having a
