Under the Trees Quilt Pattern--the Christmas version

In the days before Thanksgiving, my daughter and I decided that we needed a new Christmas quilt—the one I made years ago is much too small. We decided to back it with minky, of course!

I have recently released a new pattern, perfect for scrappy, happy, simple, quilts that are meant to be used. I know [from a few polls in my Instagram stories this summer] that many people don’t want to use their time intensive quilts to “sit under the trees,” so I put together this pattern with just those types of quilts in mind—the one that lives on your couch so your dog doesn’t ruin the couch, or you take to the beach, or soccer games, or a picnic at the park.

The Under the Trees Quilt Pattern is beginner friendly, and can work with fat quarter bundles, or digging into your scrap bin, or anywhere in between.
This quilt has some Christmas prints, as you can see, and some that I just pulled from my stash that aren’t holiday prints, but are the same colors.

The original Under the Trees Quilt—you can read more about it here.
Bonus: The pattern includes yardage and cutting instructions for quilts in lots of sizes: baby quilt, lap quilt, twin/throw [full instructions are to make a 77'' x 97'' quilt], queen, and king size quilt.
