I have a new free quilt pattern to share with you today, called Framed Squares. I've been working with these prints from a new fabric line called Flutter and Float (from Blend fabrics, designed by Ana Davis). I love the hot air balloon prints and didn't want to lose them by cutting them up in to small pieces-
So I found a way to use them as block centers, where they can be appreciated!
This is great go-to pattern when you have fabrics that you really love and you just want to show them off. One afternoon last week, I cut everything I needed, set it all out next to my machine and then just sat and did some serious chain piecing while watching a favorite movie.
These pretty prints now have me very much in the mood for Spring!
You can access the free PDF quilt pattern here (for personal use only please!). And if you make one and want to share on social media be sure to tag #framedsquaresquilt and #abrightcorner so we can all see your creations!

Thanks for the pattern Andy. I love the brightness of the quilt and how you can really see the fabrics. Sometimes we need patterns for those beautiful larger print fabrics.
