    Large Print Quilts

    Good morning, Thank you everyone for all your ideas on charity quilts for my church guild. Does anyone have an easy, go to pattern for large prints. I have some dinosaurs and lizard kids prints. Thank you to all. Have a super day.

    I'm thinking of the Illusion quilt for some beautiful large print 10" squares I have.

      I just bought a book off eBay called “Just Can’t Cut It” by Pamela Mostek that has some great ideas for large print fabric quilts. My favorite is one called “Ribbons and Rows” that separates strips of a big print with string pieced rows in a zig zag pattern that is really simple but looks great.

        Check out "Warm wishes" pattern, it would suit large scale patterns, I think.

          I don't know if this is the "Warm Wishes" pattern MaryUK was talking about but here's a link to the free pattern:

            Double Slice is one of my favorites for large prints.

                        Donna Jordan did a shadow box pattern, similar to Jenny's Illusion quilt, only with squares...https://jordanfabrics.com/pages/shadow-box-free-pattern.

                          I have taken Ginger Snaps by Villa Rosa patterns and just "shrunk it" to take it down to kids size. Great for large prints and SUPER fast.

                            Laundry Basket Quilts has a pattern called "Just can't cut it" for large prints. I made one and loved it.

                              I like Tea Cups by MSQC, as well as double slice and Illusions. I've done a lot of my own version of Warm Wishes for baby and toddle quilts.
