How to Make a Patriotic Stars and Stripes Quilt

Simple yet incredibly striking, this Stars and Stripes pattern by Elise Lea for Robert Kaufman Fabrics is stunning. Even better, it is a free pattern!

This pattern is designed for intermediate level quilters and has a traditional look. I particularly like that the border is made using a striped fabric. It looks a lot trickier than it actually is.

Download the pattern and you will find detailed instructions that include helpful diagrams. Use the fabrics the pattern recommends or switch out your own and get a completely different look.

What a great quilt for the summer months (or throughout the year)!
