Enjoy This Delightful Quilt Every Spring and Summer
Hang it Where it’s Sure to be Noticed!
A cute birdhouse, a sweet bird, and charming flowers make this a delightful quilt to display every year during gardening season. Hang it on a wall where it will be noticed and enjoy how it makes everyone smile.
Easy piecing is used to construct the quilt making it doable for quilters of most skill levels. The designer used the freezer paper and starch hand applique method for creating the flowers and bird. You can use fusible applique instead or omit those details entirely if you don’t care for applique.
Since the quilt is small it’s a great opportunity to focus on your machine quilting skills (if you won’t be quilting it by hand). Create a beautiful free-motion design or go with a straight-line walking foot design that emphasizes the shapes. Either way, you’ll have a lovely quilt when it’s done.
The completed quilt, designed by Julie Cefalu from The Crafty Quilter, is 24″ square.
