Striking Modern Quilt – Free Pattern
Featuring Riley Blake fabrics, this gorgeous design by Carina Gardner is called Ava Kate. To me it just screams summer because of the beautiful fabrics used.
I particularly love that dense floral border which brings the quilt all together and softens the squares and plus signs.
Measuring 70″ x 70″ when finished there is a trick to the eye in this design. It’s set on point even though you would not notice that at first glance. While not listed, I would say that this would not be a good quilt for a beginner to try, however a more confident sewist could assemble it easily.
The pattern is a pdf download and it has detailed instructions and illustrations.
