Mirage Quilt

 

57 x 68

This quilt is moody in some blues, grays, and cream. It was a layer cake I've had for years that I bought when our local quilt shop went out of business. I picked this pattern called Mirage by Moonkin. It's a free pattern and she has several more to choose from.

I made mine larger by adding an extra row and a half. So instead of 6 x 7 blocks, I used 6 x 8.5. That also meant that I had to find a couple more fabrics from my stash because the layer cake wasn't enough. But the effort was well worth it. 

Introducing My New Quilt Pattern: Summer Breeze

54" x 68"

I'm excited to share my latest quilt pattern with you - Summer Breeze! This fresh and versatile design is perfect for showcasing your favorite coordinating fabrics. For my version, I made the small throw size using a cheerful palette of blue and orange. The pattern itself comes with instructions for six sizes, ranging from baby to king, so there's something for everyone.

One of my favorite things about this quilt is that you only need four coordinating fabrics plus a background fabric. I had a playful orange-on-white print that I was eager to use, and I paired it with a medium-dark blue, a medium blue print, and a more muted orange dot. This citrusy palette has definitely become a go-to for me lately!

To help spark your creativity, I’ve also mocked up a few sample versions in different colorways. Hopefully, these will give you some inspiration as you plan your own version of Summer Breeze. 

You can find the Summer Breeze quilt pattern in my Etsy shop. I can't wait to see what you make with it!
