Hello Quilting Friends! It’s Melissa Corry from Happy Quilting here. Today, I am thrilled to be sharing this brand new Simply Patchwork quilt as well as a Free PDF Pattern for it!!! This quilt features Simply Country fabrics by Tasha Noel. I just love all of the shades of blue, and knew it would be perfect for this simple piecing, basic patchwork design. And always a favorite of mine, it has a low volume background!!!
Simply Patchwork is made by breaking up the beautiful Simply Country fabrics into three groups. 6 Low Volume 3/4 yard prints, 4 Navy 1/4 yard prints, and 8 Light to Medium Blue 1/4 yard prints. And I just love how grouping these fabrics makes this Simply Patchwork design just pop!!! The prints in Simply Country are just so perfect for this patchwork as they are simple and delicate. And you know, I can’t resist making a gingham binding 😉
I have had this Simply Patchwork design in my sketchbook for sometime and was just waiting for the right fabric to come along. I am so happy to see it made into a quilt. And funny thing, I wasn’t originally planning this quilt to be monochromatic, but I just love how it came together!!! Isn’t it just so great when you love the outcome more than the original plan. And the other thing I love about this Simply Patchwork quilt . . . it is super fast to make!!! With some strip piecing and basic four patch piecing, this quilt will whip up in no time at all.
The Simply Patchwork quilt is picnic Size and finishes at 74″ x 74″. And as I mentioned, there is a free PDF Download of this pattern, so you can make your own!!! To get the FREE PDF Simply Patchwork Pattern Download, just click to my blog and download it there 😉
When it came time to quilt mine I knew I wanted to keep it soft and simple. So I opted for a very loose design in a large scale. And it doesn’t get any more simple then simple meander. I think it fits the patchwork just perfect and makes it so nice to snuggle up in.
And that is my Simply Patchwork Quilt !! I hope you have enjoyed this post. Oh, and if you make your own Simply Patchwork Quilt, I would love to see it!!!
