About this pattern

Clay Yankee Puzzle is a Yankee Puzzle throw in warm cream, faded apricot, honey, clay and walnut, set five by six of twelve-inch blocks with two-inch apricot sashing so each hourglass unit has a little air around it. Finished size is 81 by 95 inches. The Yankee Puzzle is sixteen triangles: four hourglass units whose clay and cream quarters turn so a cream diamond sits in the centre of the block. Cut the hourglasses from paired squares sewn on both diagonals, press toward the clay, and join the four units so the cream points meet in the middle. Apricot sashing keeps the rhythm easy to follow. A honey inner border and a walnut outer border give the quilt a settled, collected edge. The pattern suits a piecer who is comfortable with quarter-square triangles and wants a warm, traditional top. The download is a full pattern pack with yardage, a cutting chart, piecing order and the layout for this throw.
