Wise Words Quilt – Free Pattern

Posted by on Nov 7, 2017 in Blog, Quilts, Tutorials, Words of Wisdom

When I received yardage of Words of Wisdom, I was faced with the question of “What kind of quilt would you make if you were going to use the whole Words of Wisdom panel print”?


Words of Wisdom Panel Print

I chose to highlight each saying in the panel by framing it with coordinating prints from the collection.

Rather than placing the coordinating prints randomly around the sayings which might make it confusing to look at, organizing them in a particular layout creates a secondary pattern that helps move the eye diagonally across the quilt.

While I used the fabric as-is for this project, you could certainly personalize it by embellishing the individual sayings prior to making the quilt. A bit of embroidery, anyone?

This is an easy sewing project with everything based on squares, rectangles and half-square triangles and at 58″ x 68″ it sews up as a lovely throw or lap quilt. Placed in a living room, it provides positive vibes for all to feed off of.

You can find the fabric here & the free quilt instructions right here. Enjoy!
