SUMMER’S END “CHEATER CLOTH” PATCHWORK FABRIC [2 COLORWAYS]

You guys loved my previous patchworks and patchwork projects so much last time around that I couldn’t resist mixing it up and creating a summertime garden vibe with the SUMMER’S END collection!

I have started a hundred different goodies with it already and can’t wait to share them all with you!

PATCHWORK FUN FACTS

• Comes in 2 colorways – both green and cream!
• It is 60″ wide so even 1 yard is so much to work with!
• Used as backing makes a double-sided quilt!
• Made super scrappy to mimic a real patchwork.

PANEL INSPIRATION

Once again, this patchwork makes an absolutely perfect quilt backing in both colors. It is also a wonderful patchwork to use for so many different projects as it is SO VERSATILE. Just quilt the panel at home [or ask your longarm quilter to do it] & assemble ANY bag pattern using the quilted fabric. Even more simple is the patchwork simply quilted up with a longarm pantograph as a simple throw that looks SO REAL -OR- with the addition of rounded corners. And how about some pillows?

There are even a few more ideas we have brewing and we will share those in separate blog posts…think project bags and pouches! 😉

BAG PATTERN IDEA: DENIM PATCHWORK TOTE

The DENIM PATCHWORK TOTE bag pattern was originally created for my DENIM AND DAISIES collection patchwork. I couldn’t help but make it up in the SUMMER’S END version for a refresh!

This time around, I used grey duck cloth and SUMMER’S END coordinating ribbons from RENAISSANCE RIBBONS!

Pattern available via PAPER or PDF.

GREEN/CREAM PATCHWORK THROWS

The below quilt uses 2 yards of the green colorway. We rounded the corners for a fun detail by tracing around a dinnerplate!

TIP: Be sure to use bias binding to finish your quilt to account for the curves.

The below quilt uses 1 3/4 yards of the cream colorway, with standard square corners.

PATCHWORK PILLOWS

Another great idea for the patchwork is to make up pillows in LOTS of various shapes and sizes!
