Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Final Assembly

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 27, and if you've completed all the blocks A through Z for the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along, you're at your final destination, and ready to assemble your sampler quilt!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler

Along with putting your blocks together and adding borders, you'll also want to prepare your binding so that it's ready to go after your quilt is quilted.

 

I have my binding ready to go and I'll be using Aurifil Mako 50 weight color 2910 to hand stitch the binding to the back of the quilt, which is a perfect match for my green binding fabric.

 

 

I hope you've enjoyed making the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler as much as I did. And I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing it with you! Please feel free to post any photos you may have, either work in progress, or your final quilt on Facebook or Instagram and tag your post #prairiepatchworkquiltalong! I would love to see your work!

 

The instructions to download and print below will be 7 pages long.

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block Z

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 26, and the final week of blocks in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along! Today's block is block Z, the final "spacer block".

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block(s) Z

You'll be combining blocks Z with last week's blocks Y to make a lovely zig zag spacer unit. Instructions to download below!

 

 Next week, I'll post the instructions for the final cutting and assembly of the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler. I had so much fun putting it together, and I hope you will too!

The Big Book of Favorite Scrap Quilts

I'm super excited to have one of my quilts included in the upcoming book, The Big Book of Favorite Scrap Quilts, published by Martingale!

 Scrap quilts are my favorite to make and to own, and I'm sure this book will be a winner! The release date of The Big Book of Favorite Scrap Quilts is February 2022, so keep your eyes pealed!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block Y

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 25, and this week we have Block Y in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block(s) Y

Blocks Y are just two lonely half square triangles, and there IS a method to my madness, as you'll find out next week for the final block release of the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along. With those two simple blocks to make, it will be a great week to play catch up if you're a little behind on your other blocks.

 

Have a great week!

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block X

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 24, and this week we have Block X in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block(s) X

 

These blocks will be your border blocks for the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler quilt, so you'll be making quite a few. It's a split flying geese block and although it looks rather complex, it's actually very simple using the instructions you'll find in Prairie Patchwork.

 

Ma's Sewing Basket

The split flying geese border is the same border used for Ma's Sewing Basket, a small quilt found in Prairie Patchwork. The flying geese "points" are oriented differently, pointing away from the quilt center in Ma's Sewing Basket, versus pointing toward the quilt center in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler, giving it a different look.

 

If you get behind making your blocks this week, never fear, next week I'll be posting Block Y, which will be a breeze, so you'll be able to catch up!

 Blocks T, in addition to Blocks U through Z, will be your spacer blocks, which will, in turn, be used to construct spacer units. The spacer units will be "fillers" between the previous blocks A through S when assembled into the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along sampler quilt.

I will post the download with the instructions for the final assembly after Blocks A through Z have been posted.

I so look forward to seeing everyone's interpretation of the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler! Please feel free to tag any photos of your progress on Instagram or Facebook with the hashtag #prairiepatchworkquiltalong!

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block S

The large appliqued Block S will finish to 15" square. You'll be printing out 10 pages, which will include 4 pages with the full scale applique diagram in sections to fit together. I appliqued my shapes by hand, but feel free to apply your shapes by machine if you prefer.
