Full Circle Quilt Pattern
This quilt pattern will allow your scraps to come to a Full Circle; to be used again in another quilt.
But don't worry, if you don't have scraps, I have the added option of using those jelly rolls or yardage.
Fabric Requirements:
Yardage amounts are calculated using 40” wof.
Fabric 1 (4 ½ yards): a Background/Neutral Fabric – consider a white-on-white, black, light grey or a cream. Use fabric with little to no print, such as a blender or solid fabric.
Fabric 2 (choose ONLY ONE of the options below): Choose fabric that contrasts with Fabric 1. Example: if you select a white-on-white fabric for Fabric 1, avoid using pale, pastel, light fabrics for Fabric 2.
- Option 1: Scraps – any color and/or you wish to use; as long as it stands out from your Fabric 1.
- Option 2 (62 strips, 2 ½” x wof): Jelly Roll – separate 62 of your favorite strips from two packages of jelly rolls. Sub cut into the number of squares needed.
- Option 3 (16 fabrics, each 10” x wof): Controlled Scrappy by using Yardage – choose about 16 (or more) different fabrics.
Fabric 3 (3” x wof): Choose a fabric that is your FAVORITE of your Fabric 2 choice. This can also be scrappy.
Binding (25” x wof): Recommend using Fabric 3 for the binding. This yardage is a suggestion based on a 2 ½” folded binding.
