- Block Size: 13.5″
- Pattern Style: Hourglass Nine-Patch Block
Fabrics Required:
To bring this fun quilt to life, I used the following fabrics. But you should absolutely feel free to bring your own flair and creativity by choosing your own colour palette or fabric types.
- Light Grey: ⅝ yard (.6 metres) of Spooky Schoolhouse by Melissa Mortenson for Riley Blake Designs
- Purple: 1 ⅛ yard (1.1 metres) of Seasonal Basics Bats by Riley Blake Designs
- Orange: ¾ yard (.7 metres) of Scaredy Cat by Amanda Niederhauser for Riley Blake Designs
- Black: ½ yard (.5 metres) of Hello Kitties by Dear Stella
You will also need batting, backing and binding. If you choose to do a traditional 1″ binding, you will need ½ yard (.5) metres of fabric cut into 2 ½” strips.
Quilting Tools:
Every great quilt requires the right tools. Here’s what you’ll need to create your own Treat Trail.
- Rotary cutter and mat – You can absolutely use a good pair of scissors, but I do find that you get the most accurate cuts using a rotary cutter.
- Quilting Ruler
- Sewing machine
- Thread
- Iron and ironing board or pressing mat
- Pins or clips
- Fabric marker
- Spray starch – I have recently started starching my fabrics, and I’m loving the difference. A note of caution, however: starching precuts may not work out well, as the starch can shrink your fabric in one direction only. Your squares will no longer be squares!
Remember, quilting is more than just stitching fabric together—it’s about creating memories, pouring love into every stitch, and crafting stories that last for generations. I’d love to see your interpretation of Treat Trail! Share your progress and finished quilts with us using #ourlittlehandmadehome or #olhhmoments on social media.
Happy Quilting! 🧵✨
