Easy Fat Quarter Quilt – Free Pattern

April 23, 2021 by Claudia Porter

Do you have a pile of fat quarters just waiting to be used?  If so, then you may want to check out this pretty quilt pattern from Sew Can She.

The finished quilt measures approximately 52″ x 52″ so it’s a nice baby size.  To make it you will need 9 fat quarters, backing fabric and other standard quilting supplies.  Of course, if you don’t have that many fat quarters, you can always go shopping.  It’s a great excuse!

Making the block is super easy too.  You should be able to make this quilt in no time.  The overall design has a nice modern look to it and I love the fabric the maker used in her version.  They are so bright and happy.

One great thing about this is its size.  It’s not too large for a standard sewing machine.  Sometimes larger quilts can be a bit cumbersome to machine quilt.

Smart Shopping for Quilters – Monday Precut Fabric Sales

Let’s be honest — quilting is a joy, but it can also be an investment. Fabric costs have crept up over the years, and many of us want to stretch our quilting budget as far as possible without compromising on quality or creativity. That’s why I love Fat Quarter Shop’s Precuts of the Week Monday sale. It’s smart shopping at its finest.

Each Monday, a single precut is offered at a special price. It might be a seasonal collection, a bestselling designer, or a new release you’ve been eyeing. Precuts are already efficient — coordinated, pre-cut, and ready to sew — and a discount on top of that makes them even more appealing.

If you’re looking for smart, budget-friendly quilt inspiration, these CraftGossip resources are must-reads:

  • Scrap-friendly quilts
  • Fat quarter quilt patterns

What I appreciate most about precut deals is that they eliminate the overwhelm. Instead of comparing dozens of bundles, you get one curated offer to consider. It takes the hesitation out of buying and makes it easier to build your stash intentionally.

It’s also a fantastic way to shop ahead for holiday sewing, baby quilts, hostess gifts, and charity projects. Precuts lend themselves beautifully to fast, reliable patterns — especially strip quilts and charm square designs. If you need inspiration, this list is a great jumping-off point:

  • Beginner-friendly quilt ideas

If you enjoy stretching your quilting dollars while still working with high-quality fabrics, add the Monday Precut sale to your routine. It’s a little moment of joy and practicality rolled into one.

Shop smart this Monday
