This Autumn Quilt is Simply Gorgeous
Batik Fabrics Are Perfect In This Quilt!
Gently falling leaves in colorful batiks dance across the top of this stunning quilt. The careful fabric placement and value changes within each leaf block add interest and contribute to the quilt’s charm.
Simple piecing and easy applique make this a quick quilt to construct. Select fabrics in your favorite colors, limiting the values to two fairly narrow ranges, and start stitching. You’ll have this completed before you know it.
We love the unusual colors in the quilt shown above, by designer Caroline Reardon. The quilt is lovely made up in more traditional autumn colors, too.

You can easily adjust the number of blocks for the size you want. For example, stitch together four blocks for a stunning table topper.
