My Sudoku Quilt is finally done, done, DONE!!! I think this kit was bought in 2012. At least, that’s what it’s listed as on my UFO list. It might have been earlier.
True to my nature, I did not follow the Sudoku pattern that came with the kit. I like the puzzles where you have the diagonals forming 9 different blocks (as well as the rows and 9-piece blocks.)
The kit had one charm block that was 3″ x 5″. Groan … thankfully, I did have a charm pack of the same line, so I was able to complete the quilt. But then, I thought it was too small, so I added the small square row on the top and bottom to make it longer.
Each square is quilted with a different small motif. I carried the motif throughout the quilt so that you can also see the Sudoku on the back as well as the front.
Happy Quilting!
Gail

I missed this one, I love the little squares along the top of the soduku pattern. In real life, would you believe I have never mastered a soduku? My family all think that is so odd.

Hi Helen,
Thank you … the 9 little squares along the top & bottom are of the 9 fabrics in the Sudoku kit … just smaller and in random order.
Well, I’d say that you need someone to patiently teach you the logic of Sudoku … with an EASY puzzle – then you will master the easy ones! 🙂
PS: If you want to make a Sudoku quilt & don’t have a solved puzzle to follow – email me & I’ll send you one!.
Happy Quilting! 🙂

Hi Vicki,
It wasn’t a brainstorm of mine for the quilt design … but the top & bottom borders were totally my own idea.

That’s a great looking quilt, and I like the addition of the smaller squares, too. I love sudoku puzzles with numbers, but anything else boggles my mind. LOL

Thank you … I used a regular Sudoku puzzle, just replaced the 1 with the red print, 2 with the blue … etc, etc … It was fun!

Hi Roseanne,
I love doing Sudoku puzzles – so it just makes sense.
If I ever do another one, I would make it with squares that are larger than 5″ … just to have a bigger quilt!
Happy Quilting! 🙂
