Quilt pattern advice

I know there are a couple of quilters out there who read my blog and I’m using this post to throw myself on their mercy. It’s for the puppies, so please be generous! 😆

This past weekend was blanket washing day. I have them all through the house so the puppies can snuggle where ever they want.

The blankets we have were specifically purchased for Bandit and Harley. Jasper didn’t come with a blanket, so I set out to purchase one for him. I know this might seem silly to non-doggie people considering I just told you I have blankets all over my house, but every puppy deserves his/her own blanket! Anyway, this was unbelievably difficult because they were either too large, or way too expensive.

Here’s where your help is needed. I have made 2 small quilts. One’s a wall hanging size, and one’s a lap blanket size (which I have given over to the puppies). Neither has a difficult pattern (the wall hanging is ‘around the world?’). I can sew a straight line. I can stitch in a ditch. I can tie a quilt. I have tons of fat quarters.

Keeping in mind I’m sewing for the puppies, can any of you suggest “reeeeeeally easy to follow directions” quilt patterns to me? I don’t care if they’re free or if I need to order them from somewhere.

Thankyouverymuch!

  1. What about doing 4 inch squares. Well 4.5 with a 1/4 inch seam or 5 with 1/2 inch seam? Because it’s for the doggy, I would do 1/2 inch seams for more durability.

  2. check out the Moda Bake Shop. http://www.modabakeshop.com/

    It’s full of quilts – many are beginner and fat quarter and pre-cut friendly. And they are free! 🙂
