Rings in a Square

Here's an absolutely fabulous quilt from the 1960s (?)

I saw it somewhere on the internet.

Rings in a square.

The closest I could come to a published pattern is

the bulls-eye variation from the Kansas City Star in 1943

but it has more seams. 

Or you could view it as four fans

BlockBase will give you templates for piecing these curved pieces.

If the design seems to ambitious there are simpler variations.

#1482

Fair Play

Quarter Turn

The Pig Pen

Wedding Ring

Fair Play and Mill Wheel

A variation of  #1482 Fair Play---sort of a curve.

Mill Wheel #1487 is good too

especially if you add some stripes.

An unfortunate collision between block pattern (#1487) and border.

I am thinking (just thinking) of doing a ring in a square.

No piecing in the border though.

Or more than one ring in a square.

Here's a pattern for a 6" variation, which would make a 12" block.

I imported Caroline's Fan from BlockBase to EQ7.

I erased A Lot of lines.

It looks do-able.

Print it out so the quarter block is 6".

Add seams to the pattern rings and other pattern parts.

Or applique every other ring to a large Drunkard's Path curve....

which is what I am thinking of doing.

Do a web search for

Bullseye Quilt

and see a lot of variations, mostly free cut.
