More Spring Quilt Patterns

My Leaf Table Runner is another quilt pattern that is fun to make in spring colors. 

The table runner background involves some easy piecing with leaves added using raw edge applique.  I free motion stitched around the leaves in black to make them stand out.

Check out this pattern and many more at Quilts 'n Stuff!

Free Quilt Pattern for Batiks - Sunny Flowers

I am starting to post free quilt patterns that are part what I send out monthly for my Batik Club.

Join my Batik Club to get 8 - 8 1/2 inch squares of different batik fabrics every month.  Or, use your stash to make this pattern.

This is a great art quilt project.  Let your imagination run wild and create your own version of this free pattern.

You will need:    8 batik squares 8 1/2 inches
   2-1 ¼” x 43”fabric strips  for binding
     18” x18” backing and batting
    assorted beads, matching thread and/or black thread
 
I started out making suns, but those round circles were just too plain.  I fused them on and then buttonhole stitched around them.  For fusing I typically use Head & Bond Lite or Wonder Under.

For leaves, I fused 1/4 of the square and cut out around the leaves or used the 2 leaf patterns.

I used black thread to go around leaves.  I quilted with gold variegated thread.

I applied the binding. Then I had fun, creating some beaded flowers.  You could use buttons for the flowers or hand embroider some.

Have fun trying out this pattern!

Spring Tree and Bush Quilt Pattern

Spring is here and my forsythia bush is in full bud!  I got to thinking about trees in bud. 

Make a tree in bud using my Beaded Tree pattern.  I have made all 4 seasons with this pattern.  I do winter in cold colors with iridescent beads.
