Harlequin Bloom Quilt Pattern | Precut-Friendly Modern Quilt Pattern
I’m thrilled to announce my newest modern quilt pattern: Harlequin Bloom. This playful design is perfect for showcasing your favorite fabrics, whether vibrant prints or elegant solids.
Fabric Flexibility:
Harlequin Bloom is precut-friendly, making it ideal for Fat Quarters, Layer Cakes, or yardage. It includes two versatile sizes: a comfy lap quilt and a throw that's long enough to fully cover your toes. The instructions accommodate both a scrappy look and a unified-background option for a cohesive, modern effect.
Lap Size Quilt in Art Gallery Fabrics Pure Solids
This clean, modern quilt uses yardage from Art Gallery Fabrics Pure Solids with a unified background, highlighting crisp block shapes.
Lap Size Scrappy Quilt with Layer Cake
For a vibrant, playful look, I chose a 10-inch stacker from Art Gallery Fabrics’ new Tangerine collection—perfect if you love colorful, scrappy quilts.
Throw Size Quilt with Fat Quarters
This version features Sharon Holland’s upcoming Midsummer fabric line from Art Gallery Fabrics. Paired with a unified background, it creates a beautifully cohesive design.
Who Is Harlequin Bloom Perfect For?
Harlequin Bloom is designed as a quick and enjoyable quilting project. There aren’t any complicated blocks to navigate, making it a perfect choice for confident beginners looking to grow their quilting skills. The key to this pattern’s clean, modern look is maintaining a consistent ¼” seam allowance, especially for the beautiful sashing detail. It’s an excellent project to practice precision piecing and level up your sewing game.
Tips for Consistent Seam Allowance:
To master that precise ¼” seam, consider marking your sewing machine with washi tape or using a dedicated ¼” presser foot. My go-to tool is the ¼” tape from Cluck Cluck Sew. It’s easy to apply, highly visible, and helps achieve accurate seams every time.
Try Before You Sew:
Harlequin Bloom is available on quiltink.com, where you can digitally color the pattern using your favorite fabrics. Experiment with different color combinations and visualize your quilt before cutting fabric!
