Links Quilt

A quick and easy project for those times when you want to make a gift quilt in a hurry or you just feel like doing some stress-free sewing. Sharon McConnell’s quilt pattern shows you how to use leftover parts of a jelly roll or layer cake – or bits and pieces from your stash – to make a fun lap quilt.

• Full materials list included in the instructions
• Detailed step-by-step instructions illustrated with diagrams take you through each stage of making this project from cutting the fabrics, stitching them to make the blocks and assembly through to quilting and binding
• All fabric cutting is done with a rotary cutter – no patterns to trace
• Pre-cut friendly: use jelly roll strips or layer cake squares if you wish. No yardage or background fabric required
• Make a quilt for a man, woman, teenager or child with this pattern
• The design lends itself to a wide variety of colour choices
• It’s easy to change the size of the quilt – just make more or fewer blocks or add a border
• Suitable for beginner quiltmakers who have mastered an accurate 1/4in seam
