Introducing my newest Quilt pattern - BIG BLOCKS!
After the release of Quilt Big, I even more realised the value you guys hold in blocks that come together very quickly to give you results fast. I get it - our sewing time is precious so when you get the time to Quilt and sew you want to make it count and even more so when you need a project for a present pronto.
So I set about designing a block that would be big in size and fast on completing. I also wanted it to have a small number of blocks to make in total, so playing with the sizing became very important.
Big Blocks is a great design to showcase your favourite fabrics. You can use Fat Quarters or Bundles you have been hoarding in your stash. This is also a great design to use up your scraps - so dive right in to your scrap bucket and make a dent. You can change up the background from one Background colour to using up different fabrics for each block - really this pattern is so versatile. Make is Rainbow order or choose a more limited colour palette - the sky is the limit and this will become a firm favourite when you need a go to quilt to make.
This version was made using up fabrics from my hoarded Carolyn Friedlander Stash. I used three main colours - Teal, Orange and Mustards along with a different fabric for each background in each block.
This version was made using Tula Pink Solids and the Fairy Dust print from her Pinkerville Range for the Background.
This really is a fun and fast Quilt to make - the pattern includes 3 sizes - Baby, Lap and Queen sizes. Also included is a Colouring Sheet so you can plan out your chosen fabrics and colours.
This pattern is also available to wholesale customers through Creative Abundance (who stock and distribute my patterns internationally)
