Fat Quarter Gang – Lap of Luxe by Quilt Dad


FatQuarterGANG_banner400pxBLUE

Hey guys, John here from the Quilt Dad blog. I was originally going to make a small project with my lovely new stack of Luxe fat quarters, but once I started cutting into the prints I couldn't help but make a whole quilt!

I wanted to make something fairly simple and with large blocks to show off the beautiful prints.  Although the prints are quite sophisticated in nature, I think this small quilt would be just as appropriate for a baby or child as it would be on the back of your couch.

Finished block size: 13” (13.5” unfinished)

Finished quilt size: 52” x 65”

    yes, that is what I have been looking for, the images in the pdf file. I keep re-trying it to see if they’ve been added. It is a lovely quilt and I’d like to make it!

    What is the advantage of cutting the squares into 8.5″ and then cutting down the HST to 7″? This is what I get for not reading the instructions through beforehand. :-) This seems like a waste of fabric.

    1-3/4 yards is not enough yardage; it requires 2 yards. Also, there is no need to cut 8.5-inch squares and then trim the triangle squares to 7 inches; what a waste of material!

    Shouldn’t the arrows be pointing southwest – left?
