About This Pattern
Red Licorice is a 34 x 34 inch paper pieced quilt pattern built from 32 pineapple‑style diamond blocks arranged in two radiant wheels. Eight diamonds form the striking center wheel, while the remaining twenty‑four create the surrounding outer wheel, producing layered movement and bold geometric symmetry. Although the quilt is small, it uses miniature‑scale foundation piecing techniques, including ⅛ inch seam allowances, which allow for crisp angles and precise alignment throughout. The pattern includes a master foundation set for quilters to photocopy as needed. For best results, quilters are referred to George Siciliano’s lightweight foundations, which can be left in the quilt; these are not provided.
