Amish Squares

Description

This project features a simple but striking patchwork design inspired by an Amish cot quilt from the Sara Miller collection.
Quick pieced by machine, it rapidly makes a lap quilt, or wall hanging of finished size 46” x 55”.

I selected flannel fabrics in red, yellow and black – you too may wish to select strong, deep colours in the Amish tradition, or obtain a completely different look with a more gentle colour scheme.

The body of the Amish Squares quilt has an overall waving grid quilting design, and a beautiful hand quilting design of paisley shells is supplied on separate A3 sheets for you to use for the border.

Details of other smaller quilts and wall hangings can be found in the My Designs section of the website
