Summer Squares & Charming Rag Quilt - Free Tutorials

I'm super excited to have found a couple of my very first patterns and tutorials that I did for Moda Bakeshop back in the day. They where sadly lost form Moda Bakeshop during a wordpress crash, and I thought them lost until today! Both these two patterns have been added to the "files" section of my Facebook Group, and is available for free download there. You're most welcome to join for the patterns. 

The Summer Squares Quilt

The original post can be found here. This is such a fun pattern and the appliqué trapunto method described is great fun and I use it for most appliques I make. However, nowadays I recommend using a high loft synthetic/polyester batting for the trapunto, for the best results. 

It can also easily be adapted to make adorable baby quilts. Like this baby quilt I made for my friends baby girl Vega a number of years ago.

The trapunto technique can also be used without applique pieces, but jsut to amke quilting sections stand out like here with her name. 

Charming Rag Quilt

The Charming Raq Quilt is a tutorial showing how to make rag quilts without batting, using only flannel instead for a quick to make, beautifully warm, heavy and snuggly quilt.

If you make it with patterned fabric for batting and backing, you get these really fun, lively rag seams. 

I hope you'll enjoy these tutorials once again! Both patterns have been added to the "files" section of my Facebook Group, and is available for free download there.
