Fabric Selection is Easy for This Pretty Quilt

Quilting Digest | July 8, 2017 | Free Quilt Patterns

Start with a Jelly Roll and Build from There!

Strips from a jelly roll, plus a light and a dark for the hourglass shapes, come together in a lovely quilt. You’ll enjoy this beauty anywhere around your home, or make it up to give.

It’s a simple quilt to make but you’ll need to be careful not to stretch the bias edges on the triangles. Even so, it will stitch together fairly quickly.

Select a favorite jelly roll to get started, choose a complementary border fabric, then decide on a light and a dark to tie everything together. This quilt will be beautiful in any coordinating color combination.

The pattern, from Deborah Jacobs of Gathering Friends Quilt Shop, produces a 69 ½” x 85 ½” quilt.

Leftovers from making the quilt can be used in a pretty table runner (get info here, or scroll down under the quilt instructions in the link below).

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
