Bloomingtale quilt pattern


My newest Bloomingtale quilt pattern is now available in my Etsy shop and there's also a pattern give@way going on through my Instagram account.



Can you believe that only today, while preparing the listing on Etsy, I noticed that I completely misplaced one block! Can you see that? Sigh. I've heard this happening a lot, but I suppose I had to experience it myself too.


The Bloomingtale quilt pattern was inspired with beautiful old tiles from a neighborhood house.

I firstly created this quilt pattern recreating the same color placement and using only 4 colors, but ended up with variations including contrasting block centers - arriving to modern colorful versions with different colors/patterns options. This pattern allows you to play with variations of layout, challenging you with the flower-like shape (block’s body), but also star shape (block’s background). 

Bloomingtale quilt pattern comes in two distinct color/pattern options for each of four quilt sizes included. 









 

Quilt sizes:


- wall hanging :  9 blocks - 29” x 29” 

- baby : 35 blocks  48” x 67” 

- throw : 63 blocks  67” x 86”

- bed: 99 blocks  86” x  105” 

There are 5 stunning versions using Bloomingtale quilt pattern in different variations. 

Quilts were created by my amazing group of testers that I can’t thank enough for all the help, support, engagement and beautiful work on this quilt pattern 

Shantell @shantelllavigne -BABY II using Eclectic Intuition fabrics


Kerry @thatssewkerry - THROW II


Sue @vinyardquilts - BABY I


Alicia @wildblooms_quiltco - BABY I using Timberline fabrics


Mary @embercraftcompany - WALL HANGING in Haven fabrics

And here are some more blocks in the works by the Sewing Arts @sewingarts- Julie and Rachel team.

It will become the perfect summer tote!

And a few more mock-ups:



I am planning the mid. June to mid. July quilt along when I will be recreating this quilt pattern in my upcoming Wintertale fabric collection. 

As it will be my very first QAL, I will include the option with Winterflake quilt pattern as it will be sort of Xmas in July sewing/quilting event.

I hope that you feel inspired to create and that your energy is in full boom this spring:)
