As most of our fabric fans know, we have recently received lots of gorgeous new Timeless Treasures fabrics. One of our favorite designers for this brand is Chong-a Hwang, who exuberantly delights in color and nature, as well as in tastefully exploring aesthetic traditions from her Asian roots. Today we are sharing with you a new free sewing pattern for a quilt featuring one of her colorful floral designs.
This pattern makes use of pieces of fabric cut in basic shapes: strips, triangles, rectangles and squares. There is a simple triple outside frame in purple, light aquamarine and rainbow colors, plus a more complex frame around the central panel. This rich inner frame is composed of eight-pointed-stars triplets, set on 2 diagonally opposing corners, and joined by wide colorful bands made out of fabric rectangles featuring flower and small bird patterns. The finished quilt measures about 1.85 x 1.47 meters (or 58 x 73 inches).
Take a look at the pictures below for the finished quilt! We have also included some other images of colorful flower fabrics from our kawaii selection plus solid color fabrics to complement the design, in the hopes that they will inspire you to try some quilting 😉 Good luck with your sewing, and remember to please send us photos of your own finished sewing projects, we do love to see and share them!
