Sand Bar Quilt Pattern

60 x 72

This is one of a set of 3 summertime beachy-themed quilt patterns I've been working on. Sand Bar comes in five sizes from baby to king. Sand Bar is made in three fabric colors. If you look closely, you will see the congruency of a fabric that runs through each set of colors. 

The key to making this quilt look great is to choose a light fabric in each of the three colors as your main print. It should be lighter than all the others. If the fabrics match too closely, you will not achieve the same look as in the cover quilt. For the strips or scraps, choose fabrics that are medium to dark. The more variety the better. The number of 2.5” strips listed on the fabric requirements is the minimum needed. Use more to achieve a scrappier look. See the fabric requirements here.



One morning I had a great idea to try this pattern out in an analogous color theme. I chose this mango, pink, and purple colorway, but I think it would look great in any 3 analogous colors. 
 

You can find Sand Bar in my shop.
