Artwork Quilt Pattern

Welcome to my first quilt pattern! Release day is here and I couldn’t be more thrilled! What a whirlwind of a journey this process has been. The time, work, and re-work that goes into a pattern release is surreal- even more on your first one. So, grab your coffee (or favorite drink) and let’s dive in!

Artwork, should remind us quilters that what we do is art! I’ve never consider myself an ‘artist’ so this hits close to home for me and my hope is it gives you that reminder as well. The quilt style was inspired by all our recent house projects. We’ve been staring at so many paint swatches and material chips for our wall colors, wall art, furniture and flooring. Lastly, my love for flying geese will bring you no surprise this is built solely off of the flying geese block.

Fabric Tips

FOUR-COLOR VERSION

When making the four-color version, I pick Fabric C first, then A and B.

  • Fabric A is smaller triangles and diamonds in the same column as the bigger diamonds; great for an accent print or color. Great for big fabric print, low-volume, solids, or directional fabrics.

  • Fabric B is smaller triangles and diamonds, which make up two of the five columns; also good for an accent print or color. Great for big fabric print, low-volume, solids, or directional fabrics.

  • Fabric C is the bigger diamonds and will be excellent for bigger prints; however, I would avoid directional fabric.

  • Fabric D is the background and is excellent for your favorite low-volume print or solid.

TWO-COLOR VERSION

  • Fabric A is all the triangles and diamonds and is excellent for bigger prints.

  • Fabric D is the background and is excellent for your favorite low-volume print or solid.

 
 

Tester Parade

Settle in for the best part… Tester Parade. Today would not have been possible without all their talent and time put into this pattern.

I enjoyed the connections we built and absolutely love seeing their creative perspective shining through Artwork Quilt.
