$5 Pattern of the Month - Playful Posies!!!

It's July, how did that happen???  With the new month we have a new $5 Pattern of the Month here at Happy Quilting!!!  And July is all about  Playful Posies .  And it is just $5 all month long!!!   

The  Playful Posies Pattern can be found in my Etsy Shop in both a Paper version as well as a PDF version and both versions will be marked down to $5.00 for the month July.   This is such a fun quilt to make and would be perfect for so many lovely occasions.   It comes together quicker than you would think it would too with lots of chain piecing ;)  It is rated Beginner Friendly as well as Layer Cake Friendly.  

 Playful Posies  has 6 size options.  The quilt design uses lots of stitch and flip to create those little flowers, but the nice thing is, all of the diagonal matching seams are nested, so you get beautiful perfect points every time!!    You can really create a stunning Summer quilt in whatever size works best for you!!  The pattern is great for mastering your stitch and flip (use your Diagonal Seam Tape so you don't have to draw the lines!!) and doing lots of chain piecing.  

Need some ideas for your Playful Posies Quilt??  This is such a versatile design it would look good in so many different prints!!!  Here are some new arriving fabric collections mocked up . . .  Just to give you some fun ideas of what you can do with this pattern!!  

Here is the Lap Size in a First Blooms 10" Stacker by Heather Peterson.  Doesn't this just sing of happy summer time picnics!!  I choose a low volume from the line to use for the background and it just works perfectly with all of those happy bright colors!!!  I so want to make this quilt ;) 

And it is always fun to use a Grunge background (it truly is my all time favorite basic for backgrounds!!)   This is the Twin Size in Frivolity Layer Cake by Sweetfire Road and I used Grunge Bellini for the background.   This grunge has hints of gold, pink, and brown, so I figured it would be the perfect background for this line of pink, gold, brown, and green ;)   It just sets off the prints so perfectly!!  

And if you are a fan of all things Regency . . . Here is the Picnic size in the new Emma 10" Stacker from Jane Austen's House !!!    Doesn't it just make a classic quilt!!  It makes me want to sit under a tree and pluck petals from a daisy :)  I used Shades Linen for the background and it is the perfect compliment to let the richness of all these colors and prints just shine!!  

And finally, I did a Child size mockup.   And if you are going to go Child Size, you need a fun, happy, bright print!!  So here it is in  Superbloom Layer Cake by Robin Pickens!  And using Robin's basic,  Dotty Thatched  in Carnation is the perfect color pop to really make this quilt all girl!!!   Isn't it just so sweet ;) 

       

And that is my $5.00 Pattern of the Month!!!   July 2025 is all about the Playful Posies Pattern!!!   You are going to have so much fun making all of these adorable little flowers blowing in the wind ;)        And of course,  if you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to me ;)  And when you make your Playful Posies 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 and #playfulposiesquilt ;)  I can't wait to see your Quilts!!!
