I am so in love with this new fabric line called Swell Christmas by Moda. It’s the perfect retro/vintage Christmas feel that I love! I knew I needed a quilt out of this! It’s so much pressure to determine the right pattern to make the fabrics shine. I knew I didn’t want to cut it up into small pieces, yet wanted something a little more interesting than just squares. I’m thrilled at how this quilt pattern accomplished both!!
My latest pattern, Uneven 9-Patch is such a fun pattern, especially to use with larger prints or theme print fabrics. The quilt measures 58″ x 72″ and the blocks are 12″. This version uses 1 red fat quarter and 10 Swell Christmas fat quarters with 1 1/2 yards sashing fabric.
You can purchase the pattern in my Etsy shop for instant PDF download!
Seriously these colors are the best!!!!!
I’m so not ready for Christmas but I know I will be happy come December to have a new quilt to pull out and enjoy!
Each block is made up of 2 prints and a red center square.
Baby Mufasa was very helpful in the process. He’s good at grading all the pieces!
Here is another version of the Uneven 9-Patch. This version uses 20 fat eights instead of 10 fat quarters.
I love that a fat eighth bundle of this Cotton + Steel fabric, plus background fabric, makes this entire quilt!! I love that I can make this quilt top in a day! Totally my kind of quilt!
The quilting is so amazing on this!! I use @quilterlove66 on Instagram!
This is also a great pattern for beginners because it’s as easy as sewing 5″ squares together yet looks more interesting!
i have 6 half yard cuts of fabric. Do you think this pattern would work with that amount of fabric, plus background and sashing?
Yea that should work, there will be less variety but with the sashing it will look good!
