And since this quilt is the new cover girl of my True North pattern, it seemed only fair to treat it like a new pattern release. So the True North pattern can be found found in my Etsy Shop, and like all my new Pattern Releases, It is on Special!!!! This week True North will be marked down to $5.50!!! After that, it will be marked at the regular pattern price of $8.50 :)
I absolutely love this quilt and it's giant blocks. The block uses Stitch and Flip corners and some Half Square Triangles and with the large size, they go together fast and are so much fun to make. And I love the movement the design creates, those centers just pop right out ;)
And when it came time to quilt it I went with my favorite all over swirls. I thought about custom quilting it for a while, like I did the original, but it had been sitting to long waiting for that. So I just went for it with these super fast swirls. And i just love the overall effect and how it makes the design shine ;) And of course, swirls always give amazing texture!!!!
And since my good friends in the Bees Knees were making blocks for me, I had a total of 11 blocks, and for this quilt, I only needed 9. So I put the extra two blocks on the back of the quilt. How fun is that. I love a little patchwork goodness on the back!!!
And just as a reminder, like all my patterns, True North has size options so you can make the quilt size that fits you ;) You will find 4 size options, a Baby, Lap, Twin, and a Queen size. The block varies in size so the piecing isn't to tiny or to huge, which helps it go together faster, even if you are making the queen size :)
And just like all my patterns, this is a full color pattern that can be printed in either page format or book format. It is filled with lots of wonderful illustrations to guide you along each step of the way. You are going to have so much fun putting this together ;) And of course, if you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to email me ;)
And that is my new True North quilt and Updated Pattern!!!! Again, the pattern can be found in my Etsy Shop and will be on special for $5.50 all this week ;)
Thanks for popping in today and I hope you have a very Happy Quilting Weekend!!!
I love it! I used your pattern to make a baby quilt- just 4 blocks and they turned out great. I want to make it again in lap size!
