A new variation on the beloved Summer in the Park quilt—same style but different results/ Quilt For Sale
I’m off and running on this great new Quilt project . Classic Patchwork Quilt~
Kaleidoscope Quilt Made To Order ~~
UPDATE: Part 2 Making The Kaleidoscope Quilt
1. Preparing the Fabrics: The Foundation of a Square in a Square Quilt/ Round 1 ~~ King Size
Before any stitching begins, every fabric piece goes through a process: washing, drying, and re-ironing. This step ensures the fabric is clean, pre-shrunk, and smooth for precise cutting. It might seem like extra work, but it makes a huge difference in the final quilt!
For this miniature version, I cut both dark and light fabrics into 1.5-inch triangles. This small scale adds extra precision and challenge to the process, but it’s worth it for the intricate patchwork look! Its good to have some great Rulers To work with I like My TuckerTrimmer tool for these types of projects. It allows for you to make them bigger and trim them down. So you get precision cuts and all the points match up.
2. 1st Trim Down, Piecing , Building Blocks of the Quilt/ Round 2
The first step in assembling the quilt is sewing pairs of triangles together to form larger triangle units. Then, two sets of triangles are combined to create squares. It’s a classic “square in a square” style, but with a twist—what I like to call my Summer in the Park style.
3. Trimming Down the 2nd round/ Quilt for sale
once I have round 1 trimmed out, I move on to doing the same for another round.
4. Starting Round 3/ Square inside a Square
Once I have a light square, and a round of color, I move on to now making mirror image blocks. 1 dark, and 1 light again for a second round. this round also has trimming in between, Makes for a very precise and easy assembly. Looking sharp!
5. It has 2 different sets of Blocks/ Dark and Light/ Mixing them together
This is one of those great quilts seems busy up close, but in the right room at a distance is absolutely beautiful. This scaled down patchwork gives it that great classic patchwork look and appeal. The more there are the better it is.
Alternate Lay Outs~ all Light/ or all Dark
I like them all 3! mixed blocks, is my favorite, but the all Cream versions is super sharp too! So many ways to lay out a quilt like this.. I think I have done this one before with solid blocks in between too.
This Quilt is available for Made To Order Here ( not a finished piece yet, but it will be soon) will update soon with the finished quilt 🙂
