Fat eighth or fat quarter friendly! Big Rose – 47” square, 15” block, Rose Wreath – 54” x 70”, 10” block.

We’re reliving the 70’s with this favorite applique quilt block.  Modern techniques, including speedy fusible web applique and machine edging, make it so much easier now!  The linen touch is a popular trend, but it would also look fabulous in light grey or light colored solids for the backgrounds. The pattern includes a more traditional 54” x 70” throw quilt with a 10” block and traditional border, but my favorite, Big Rose, is 47” square with a hefty 15” block. This is a great fat eighth or fat quarter friendly pattern!
