This charming quilt is based on the poignant Hans Christian Andersen story of a steadfast one-legged tin soldier, who falls in love with a pretty ballerina. There are just two blocks in the quilt but the various parts of each block require many pieces to build up the various motifs that play a part in the story. Close attention to the diagrams and careful measuring will help you make a quilt that is sure to be treasured for years.
