How we work it out
- Your bundle becomes the prints. Every print piece in the blocks can come from any piece of your bundle, the way a scrappy quilt is made.
- We cut it on paper. Each fat quarter, charm or strip is cut the way you would at the table: strips, then pieces, packed so nothing usable is wasted.
- We grow the quilt one row of blocks at a time until your bundle runs out, and keep the biggest size it covers completely.
- The rest is a shopping list: background, borders, binding and backing, to the ⅛ yard.
Fat quarters are planned as 18 × 21", fat eighths 9 × 21", charm squares 5", layer cake squares 10" and jelly roll strips 2½ × 42". Want the background from your stash too? Add how many yards you have.
Your whole stash, not just one bundle
In the Quiltkind studio you add every fabric you own, with a photo, and plan any quilt from all of it at once.
