8" Quilt Block Patterns

This post contains affiliate links for which I receive compensation.

The 8" quilt block patterns on this page are divided into several categories based on the grid (think graph paper squares) they are drawn on.

2x2

4x4

8x8

12x12

Use these links to skip to the blocks you're looking for.

• 2x2

• 4x4

• 8x8

• 12x12

If you are looking for an 'alternate block' for a quilt design you are working on, block designs using the same grid tend to look good together with little effort.

Blocks with their patches set on point might not look like they belong in a particular category, but look closely. You should be able to recognize the grid divisions with a bit of practice.

Some of the 8" quilt block patterns include at least some paper piecing. If that's the case, there is a free pattern for you to download.

Under the image of each block are the other sizes included in the block tutorial.

New blocks are added to this grouping as they are published on the website.

Enjoy!
