Hello Quilting Friends! Today, I am thrilled to be sharing this brand new Cherry Tree Lane quilt as well as a Free PDF Pattern for it!!! This quilt features Blossom Lane fabrics by Katherine Lenius. I just love all of the beautiful prints in this line!! It is filled with gorgeous florals, happy doors, fun envelopes, and antique keys. And the colors just bring a smile to my face, (especially the purples!!!) And since this quilt is all about Lanes, I came up with this on point design, that has the look of a street grid.
Cherry Tree Lane is made with a 10″ Stacker of Blossom Lane. And yes, Cherry Tree Lane is from Mary Poppins ;) As soon as I saw these prints, they just reminded me of the whimsey and magic of that childhood favorite. Especially all of the doors, don't they just look like they belong on the row houses of Cherry Tree Lane!!! I used the Windows and Knockers prints in cream to frame all of the blocks, and the Keys print for the border. I just love how the black just sets off al off those gorgeous colors!!!
The Cherry Tree Lane quilt is a very easy one to make, and great if you want to learn how to sew quilts on point. It is simply just bordering your print squares from your Layer Cake/10" Stacker. Then you just cross cut a few for setting blocks, and then piecing it all together. The simple patchwork makes it a super great quilt to whip up for a wedding or similar special occasion.
The Cherry Tree Lane quilt is a Large Lap/Twin Size and finishes at 76″ x 93″. And as I mentioned, there is a free PDF Download of this pattern, so you can make your own!!! To get the FREE PDF Cherry Tree Lane Download, just click here and download it :)
When it came time to quilt mine I knew I wanted to keep with the "lane idea" and what grows better on British Lanes then Ivy?? So I did my Loose Feathers free motion design that totally looks like ivy climbing the walls. I love all of the movement it gives, and it is a super fast design to do a well, double bonus!!! It will be just perfect to snuggle up in.
And that is my Cherry Tree Lane Quilt !! I hope you have enjoyed this post. Oh, and if you make your own Cherry Tree Lane Quilt, I would love to see it!!!

ReplyDeleteI am imagining this pattern using fabrics that match the 2024 Pantone Color of the Year - Peach Fuzz, and a pop of deep teal (like the darkest fabric in your quilt). thank you again for another great pattern and inspiration. Now, to set aside time to create. Enjoy!
Thank you! This is a great pattern to showcase beautiful prints! Need to dig through my layer cakes and make this!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I have a couple of layer cakes that I have been wondering what to make with them. This pattern is perfect!,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your incredible generosity! I have a huge stack of layer cakes (which I've cut from 50 years of quilting scraps) that I wanted to make use of....and now I can. Thank you for making it possible to reduce the height of the scraps - and to give others a beautiful quilt, too (I give away 98% of what I make). Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you! Deb E
