PRINT | Patch Party Block of the Month Sampler Quilt Pattern
PRINT | Patch Party Block of the Month Sampler Quilt Pattern
Patch Party is a traditionally pieced, beginner modern quilt sampler pattern. The pattern is printed and measures 8.5” x 11”. Quilters will learn and use basic skills like making 4-patch units, half-square triangles, quarter-square triangles, flying geese, and square-in-a-square units. It is a great way to learn new piecing techniques.
There are 11 different quilt blocks and you will make two copies of 8 blocks, four copies of 2 blocks, and one jumbo center block.
In Patch Party, traditional quilt blocks are given a modern update through the use of solids and tone-on-tone prints. The quilt is made with Michael Miller Cotton Couture solids and Fairy Frost prints.
For most blocks, you will need one fat quarter of solid fabric and a fat eight of print. In the pattern materials section the fabric names are given, but in the rest of the piecing instructions, the fabrics are referred to as Solids and Prints. This makes it easy for you to substitute fabrics if needed.
