Laurel Wreath Quilt

Fabric Requirements:

Quilt size: Lap – 51" x 68"
Background – 1 1/2 yards
Outer border – 2 1/2 yards
Dark prints  – 1/2 yard total assorted prints*
Medium prints – 3/4 yard total assorted prints*
Light prints – 1/4 yard total assorted prints*
Border squares – 1/4 yard

                   Laurel Wreath block

  *Assorted prints – you can make each block using the same fabrics, or vary the fabrics from block to block. If you choose assorted prints, these are the requirements.

For each Laurel Wreath block, you'll need

  • 2" x 40" strip for the dark
  • 2" x 40" strip for the medium
  • 2" x 20" strip for the light
  • A 3 1/2" square for the center of the block

For each Star block, you'll need

  • 2 1/2" x 20" strip for the star points (dark)
  • 4 1/2" square for the star center (medium)

For the Border squares and hexagons

  • Assorted 3 1/2" squares for the hexagons
  • Assorted 2" squares

Cutting:

The following is all the cutting for the lap quilt.  We won't be using all the pieces in class, but if you bring them all, you'll get more sewing done. My goal is for you to get one of each of the blocks done in class. If you want a larger quilt, you will be able to cut the rest of it at home.
