Quilt Kits

Everyone loves a quilt kit! What's not to like, all the fabric is there for you perfectly coordinated. No fretting over which pattern or colors or what fabric to use, all the work is done for you.

Well, not all the work, YOU still have to make it. But most quilters say picking out fabric is one of the hardest things about making a quilt. I have known people to agonize and waffle back and forth over choosing fabric to the point that they give up and walk away.

So quilt kits are easy, low stress and fun to make. They are also a good way for a beginner to get started, especially if you're not sure about this whole quilting thing. It's a good way to test the waters to see if you really like it while not being a big commitment of time or money.

We only offer a few kits at a time. Some we base on patterns provided by the fabric manufacturer for a particular fabric line and some we make up ourselves which gives you a more unique quilt that you may not find anywhere else.

We currently offer 3 quilt kits with one being offered in two colorways.

Stacked Deck

This pattern from P&B is made with their Sketched fabric line. I really like the bright and bold graphics of this line and I think this pattern does well in showcasing them. I love the pop of red and yellow to the traditional black and white combination.

Gradation
This pattern is also provided by P&B and made with a combination of their Apple Cider and Ramblings fabrics. This quilt is a total opposite of the Stacked Deck. The neutral fabrics make it serene and calming. I, personally, am not a fan of the checkerboard inner border because it gives it a country look. But if you eliminate this border and replace it with just a smaller 2inch border of one fabric it would give it a more contemporary feel. Or you may like the country look and love the look of this border. Hey, it's all good!

Remember, there is no law (at least not yet!!!) that says you can't change a pattern to your taste even if it is a kit. You just might need to get a little extra fabric.

Windmill Pinwheel

We featured this pattern and kit earlier on the blog but I think it is cute and warrants another mention. If you are looking for a quick baby quilt this is it. It has the look of being set on-point and is easier than it looks. We offer it in the blue/green colorway above and in a pink/green colorway shown below.




I have a few other kit ideas I'm mulling over so hopefully one will make its way onto the site soon!
