Google - quilt patterns using 5" charm packs - lots of patterns, sometimes it's the words used in the Google search and that can be frustrating, if you knew the words, you could find it without Google!! LOL, I feel your pain.

All patterns on MSQC are free, as well as those on You Tube. I would go to You Tube and print in charm pack quilts and I'm sure you will find many that you would like. I've made simple quilts with just the squares and a border.

[QUOTE=Tartan;7475662][B][COLOR=#0000cd]Missouri Star Quilt co. has a tutorial on Falling Charms. There are some pictures on QB posted. You can go to their site by using forum.missouriquiltco.com and all their tutorials are available under that tab.

I have also made the Falling Charms quilt as well as working on a disappearing 4 patch with charm squares...both from MSQ...and really like how straight forward they are to make and
how good they look.

There are a few books that contain lots of quilts made with 5" squares. "Nickel Quilts" and " More Nickle Nickle Quilts " are two. Try searching Nickle quilts patterns for more. Most of the fabric manufacturers that offer charm squares also have free patterns on their web sites

I myself am in the process sewing the Falling Charms quilt, king size! I love her tutorial for it and so simple by just using the 5" charm squares and strips. It's coming along beautifully and I hope to have it finished before summer. It's actually my wedding quilt, I'm marrying in Nov. this year. I am using the Mum for Mum by Bernatex, Jackie Robinson. I fell in love with the plum, gold and sage colors. I have the pattern in her BLOCK magazine and used her tutorial to follow instructions and it is easy.

Falling Charms as well as Disappearing 9 Patch both are pretty and use charms. If you have a JoAnn's nearby, they have some books (including Pat Speth's) for charm square quilting. Also, check out these on Pinterest:

usually clicking on the pictures will take you to where the pattern is.

Thank you so much for all the suggestions. I have decided to do a tumbler tablerunner with one of the Christmas themed packs and a disappearing 4 patch with a couple. I have enough background fabric to make my light color squares. Now to get cutting. Would love to show pictures but haven't succeeded at that skill yet. Just mastering this computer has been skill enough. Thank you for showing all your beautiful quilts.

Missouri Star Quilt Company with Jenny Doan is a great resource for charm pack quilts. Also, Pinterest often has some free patterns for charm packs. (They also make some awesome purses!). [ATTACH=CONFIG]543639[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH=CONFIG]543640[/ATTACH] the one on the left is from a charm pack. The other two I cut 5 inch squares because the client wanted black and turquoise and that is hard to find in a charm pack. ��. Charm packs are fun to work with.....explore the great suggestions here or you can google "charm pack quilts" and see what comes up. Good luck.
