Create an Eye-Catching Quilt with Fat Quarters

Play with Color and Value Placement for Your Own Unique Version!
Dark accents are simply wonderful against the soft colors in this endearing quilt. The darks create a striking overall design that will catch everyone’s eye.
This is a fun pattern to play with, as it allows plenty of options for stretching your design wings. Start by deciding on the overall color theme, then consider changing up the value placements to create your own unique design. For example, what would happen if you switched the light and dark?
Choose three fat quarters of different values for each block. Go scrappy or go with a coordinated theme.
