Give Traditional Colors a Twist for a Welcoming Quilt
| May 20, 2018 | Patriotic Quilts, Quilt Ideas
The Quilt Will be Wonderful in Other Palettes, As Well!
Traditional star blocks are updated in this cozy throw quilt. Four-patch and nine-patch blocks form the centers of the large stars. Smaller stars and stripes complete the interesting design.
Enjoy this quilt all year long or save it for patriotic holidays. It will be lovely and welcoming in a rocking chair on the porch for cool summer mornings.
Soft red, washed-denim blue and off-white create a charming and unexpected color combination. Choose a similar palette for your version, or go with more traditional red, white and blue.
Or go in a different direction entirely. The quilt will be just as charming in many coordinated color combinations.
The finished quilt, designed by Christy Bowman, is 62″ x 74″.
