Today we are so excited to release our very first quilt pattern….The Saturday Afternoon Quilt!
This quilt is so easy to construct that you can put it all together on…wellll…a Saturday afternoon.
I love this pattern. With over size pieces it allows you to showcase your favorite fabrics and the vertical row by row construction makes the assembly a breeze.
For the last two years it has been my go to pattern for quick handmade gifts.
And, depending on the fabric choices, this pattern takes on a different personality every time I make it.
For example…here it is sewn up with Dr. Who fabric:
And yesterday we shared it sewn up with our friend Dana’s new fabric line “Boardwalk Delights”.
If you have never sewn up a quilt before but have been wanting to try then this may be the perfect pattern for you to begin with!
And if you are an experienced quilter then this is a great piece to add to your instant gratification pattern stash.
So since it’s the first release it is on sale (starting today and running through the weekend) for $5 in our shopify shop!
Which you can find HERE.
(After this 3 day sale it will go to it’s official PDF price of $7.95.)
Right now it is an immediate downloadable PDF but coming soon we will also have it in a paper version as well.
And speaking of coming soon…with September being National Sewing Month…we have decided to start releasing the pile of patterns we have been sitting on for years….so keep your eyes peeled for more patterns and kits to be released throughout the month!
PS: We have had a few emails asking about the size of this quilt….it is a lap/throw sized quilt that when finished is 52″x 54″…and because of the size only requires 4 yards of fabric total for the entire top and binding!

Congrats! Such a great accomplishment. I was wondering what the finished quilt dimensions are and what the fabric requirements are.
Thanks!

how large is the quilt? can it be sized up or down easily?
liZ says
I should have put the answers to your questions in the original post!!! Thank you for asking….I just added the answers to your questions in a PS at the end of the post!
liZ says
It is a lap sized quilt 52″ x 54″ and can easily be sized up or down by adding extra blocks to the row or additional rows!

Im trying to order this pattern and it says that it’s sold out. Is there a way to order it before it goes off sale?
