Easy Beginner Jelly Roll Free Quilt Pattern

, by . Leave a Comment

Perfect for your latest jelly roll or 2 1/2″ strip set you just bought, this free quilt pattern from APQS shines.

Called Island Four Patch, this is an easy quilt to make so it is good for a beginner with some experience.  When finished, the quilt measures about 45″ x 60″, so it’s a great lap quilt.

I can envision this quilt in so many different color variations, and I have a couple of strip sets that I just may have to use to make one of these.

The pattern uses a lot of strip piecing which helps make it so easy to construct.  You will find plenty of detailed instructions and diagrams to help you out.
