Double Dutch - New Happy Quilting Pattern!!!

Today I am just thrilled to be sharing a new Happy Quilting Pattern and Quilts!!!   Here is Double Dutch!!! This is such a fun quilt to make.  I have already taught the class twice, and it was so much fun to watch everyone's blocks come together.  I can tell, this is going to be such a fun class to teach for the next little bit (In fact, I am teaching it at Garden of Quilts this Fall!!)  

The  Double Dutch Pattern can be found in my Etsy Shop in both a Paper version as well as a PDF version.  And it is on Special for it's release with PDF Patterns at $5.50 and the Paper Patterns are $7.00!  The patterns are full color and the paper version is in book format.  

 Double Dutch has lots of layout options, so you can make it as shown here with coordinating colors, or you can mix and match the colors like I did on the baby size (shown later)    The quilt is made with No Waste Flying Geese and basic piecing so it really comes together quick.  And with the fun offset layout of each block, it really gives the quilt a lot of movement.   Yup, just happy colorful windmills blowing in the distance :)  

This version of  Double Dutch is made with Moonchild by Fran Gullick for Riley Blake Designs! I just love these beautiful colors and prints, and the line was perfect for the color coordinating I was going for on this quilt!!  And of course, the sky is the limit on which fabrics you make it from, it was so fun to see everyone's fabric choices for classes!!!  The quilt is Fat Quarter/Eighth Friendly, so you can Grab a Bundle and get cutting!!!  

I quilted this version of  Double Dutch with lots of curly q's in the background and then beautiful feathers in the blocks.  I just love how they turned out and how the feathers in the blocks made it look even more like they were turning :)    And of course, all of the lovely texture is a double bonus ;)

And after I got the original quilted . . . I just couldn't help but make a Baby size  Double Dutch !!!   I wanted to show how fun it is to mix and match your color prints as well, so I used  a petite Fat Eighth Bundle of Forget Me Not by Allison Harris and then paired it with a fun Bee Lori Blue Background.   I think it turned out just oh so cute!!!

I quilted the baby size in an all over loose feather design. It was super fast and has become a favorite of mine, especially after quilting a big quilt all custom quilted :)

And if you are like me, and want to make multiple sizes, you can find the sizes that work just right for you!!!  The pattern has 5 size options :  Baby, Lap, Picnic, Twin and Queen/King.  The Baby and Lap sizes uses smaller blocks and Fat Eighths while the Picnic, Twin, and Queen/King are the big 20" blocks with Fat Quarters.   So now you can make all the sizes :)  

And that is my new  Double Dutch quilts and Pattern!!!    You are going to have so much fun making these quilts ;)  And of course,  if you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to me ;)  And when you make your Double Dutch Quilts I would love to see them!!!  You can email me a picture at happyquiltingmelissa@gmail.com or add it to social media with  #happyquiltingwithmc ;)  I can't wait to see your Quilts!!!
