Create a Striking Quilt from Vivid Crayon Colors
| January 25, 2026 | Paper Piecing, Quilt Ideas
It Will Be Beautiful in Other Color Palettes, Too!
Brilliant crayon colors dance against gray and white in this striking quilt. The transition from cool to warm and back to cool colors moves the eye around the quilt.
This is a fun project because you can “color” it however you want. For example, it will be lovely in blues and violets against the neutral background.
Two blocks combine to create the beginner-friendly design. One is made with standard piecing and the other is a simple foundation paper pieced block (you’ll find excellent FPP instructions here).
On Williams Street provides instructions for the following quilt sizes:
- Baby – about 40″ x 60″
- Throw – about 50″ x 72″
- Twin – about 75″ x 89″
- Queen – about 90″ x 111″
