Based on a French garden layout with its angular flower bed, The Prettiest Parterre Quilt pattern by Vicki Tucek is the perfect combination of geometric design and pretty appliqué flowers, combining multiple techniques including foundation piecing, patchwork, English paper piecing and embroidery.
- Full materials list included in instructions
- Pattern sheet is included with paper piecing templates and foundation designs provided full size, ready for tracing
- This quilt uses foundation piecing, English paper piecing which is hand appliquéd to the background and simple embroidery embellishments, making it a great project for practising different techniques
- Lots of clear instructions with Vicki's tip on making the border without using foundation piecing but with templates instead
- Take inspiration from Vicki's original design and make your version in floral fabrics such as the Lecien Flower Sugar ranges, or try different fabric colours and prints for a different look
- Detailed step-by-step instructions, colour photographs and clear diagrams take you through all the steps from English paper piecing through to finishing your quilt
- Vicki machine quilted her quilt with an all-over design, but you can try out your own free-motion machine quilting or even hand quilting to make it unique
- Stitches used are running stitch and straight stitch
- A great pattern for advanced-level quilters with good piecing and foundation piecing skills, or for more adventurous intermediate quilters
