The Hopscotch Quilt Pattern by Amy Smart Diary of A Quilter
If you are part of my newsletter, you have already heard a little about Pattern Drop, my new digital pattern of the month club!
Edited 2021: due to going back to work, I no longer host a quilt pattern of the month club—but you can still purchase many of the Pattern Drop patterns, including this one.
I would love to have you check out my quilt patterns and Summer Sampler Quilt Alongs here.
This is Hopscotch, designed by Amy Smart of Diary of a Quilter.
Pattern In 2 Sizes
This pattern is available in 2 sizes–a generous sized throw quilt, and a baby quilt. As a bonus, we have given you fabric requirements and cutting instructions in case you want to make a square, borderless baby quilt, too!
We are so excited to launch our first Pattern Drop Pattern today, the Hopscotch Quilt by Amy Smart from Diary of a Quilter. Amy is an accomplished quilt designer, blogger, author, and fabric designer. You’re going to love working with this quilt pattern, and how it lends itself to playing with color.
Half Square Triangle Video Tutorial
Make sure to check out Amy’s video tutorial for making 16 half square triangles in no time at all!
I love teaching a pattern and just seeing the different color palettes that people show up with. It changes the whole look of that pattern, and gives it new life. And so I’m so excited about collaborating with Pattern Drop … and can’t wait to see what people do with it!”
