Simple Squares Floral Quilt

The quilt that I get the most requests for is a simple basic squares quilt that uses lots of floral prints. I’ve made several versions of this quilt. Each is a little different than the others so that they are still one of a kind.

I have a video on my youtube channel of me demoing the cutting for the squares in this quilt. They are 10″ squares and perfect for cutting from 42″-44″ wide fabric. Please note that the video is meant to help you, especially for beginners, but I am not a professional youtuber. So, laugh if you must, but please be nice.

For this one, I used free motion loops in shiny pink thread. I was happy with how the pink loops and the crinkles turned out on this one. I love a crinkly quilt! Check out this video from my Instagram if you want to see a clip of me quilting this one.

I’ve typically used a solid background on this particular quilt, but the client chose to use that yellow floral print from the front as the backing. I love how it turned out!

I posted a shot of this binding on a quilting facebook page. A few people asked me about how I do my binding. Check out this post on my favorite binding technique. I love using decorative stitches for the top stitch on my binding. This one is a serpentine stitch that I did with my walking foot.

This quilt is available as a custom order in my Etsy Shop.

Another thing I get asked about a lot is my labels. So here’s the information you need on those.

They are custom made by Melanie at Meander + Make. Melanie was nice enough to give me a coupon code to share with you. Use the code SNUGGLEBUGSTITCHING for 10% off!

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog!
