Fat Quarter Quilt pattern for large prints
Hello,
I got a fat quarter bundle last year. Some of the fat quarters have large prints and I am looking for suggestions for a fat quarter quilt that has some bigger pieces within the design to show off the prints. I would love some suggestions. I have the pattern Sew Little Time from Best Fat Quarter Quilts 2012, and the biggest piece is 5x 9 1/2. I tried one of the fat quarters and it is looking a little chopped up. Thanks. |
I wonder if you could enlarge Hole in the Barn Door to accommodate the larger prints. I must admit that I have been avoiding those larger ones because I have a tendency for little blocks, like Boxed Squares.
|
I sewed 6 fat quarters together just as they were, and made my dil a large lap quilt. She just loves it. She even cried when I gave it to her. Pretty easy.
|
Make Churn Dash blocks big as you want, fussy cutting the middle square.
|
This book by Heather Peterson is great for large blocks, some using the entire fat quarter.

Thank you for the suggestions especially the books Living Large 1and 2 by Anka's Treasure. There are some nice quilts for big prints in the books.

I bookmarked this quilt a while back because I thought it was really nice and so much potential for big prints.
