Do you ever find yourself staring at a growing collection of beautiful quilting material, dreaming of the perfect project to use it up? That’s a feeling every quilter knows well. The secret to a successful quilt is finding the perfect match between a great pattern and your fabric stash. Here at Vintage & Vogue, we believe that choosing a pattern that complements your specific fabric bundle can turn that pile into a masterpiece. Here are four points to consider when pairing quilting patterns with your stash. Shop today.
These 5” x 5” squares are perfect for designs that use small, uniform pieces. Look for easy quilt patterns that are block-based, such as four-patch, nine-patch, or simple star blocks. Charm packs are also ideal for "scrappy" quilts where you can combine a wide variety of fabrics for a cohesive, colorful look.
The 2.5” strips of a jelly roll are made for strip piecing. This type of fabric bundle is fantastic for creating quick and impressive designs like log cabin quilts, rail fence patterns, or any design that highlights the long lines of the strips. Using a jelly roll is one of the most satisfying ways to get an entire quilt top started with a pre-cut bundle.
The larger size of a fat quarter (18” x 22”) makes it one of the most versatile quilting material bundles. They are perfect for showing off larger-scale prints, or you can cut them into smaller pieces for a scrappy or block-based quilt. You can find inspiration and ideas for using fat quarters in our quilt pattern books.
Sometimes, your stash might be missing one key element. Maybe you need a background fabric or a binding to tie everything together. Our online quilt fabric shops are the perfect place to find that missing piece, allowing you to complete your project without having to purchase a whole new bundle.
Finding the perfect pattern for your fabric is a journey of creativity. The joy is in the process, and the result is a one-of-a-kind quilt. Shop today.
