Beginner Quilt Patterns - Set of 5 PDF Quilt Patterns
Five patterns to give you an excellent foundation in piecing quilts. There's video tutorials for these quilts too!
Color Shift
I love playing with the movement of color in my quilts, and this is a simple way to experiment and grow this skill as a quilter. You will need to select six fabrics in the same color family to achieve the gradient. Alternately you could use bold, complementary colors to make a color palette sing!
Scaling the blocks instead of making more for the larger sizes, keeps this quilt simple and a quick sew no matter what size quilt you decide to make.
Sizes options included in the pattern:
Baby - 40" x 48"
Throw - 60" x 72"
Twin - 80" x 96"
King - 90" x 108"
Modern Wedge
With minimal fabric choices, you can focus on learning how to make a great half-square triangle. (HST) These triangles come up often in classic quilt patterns, and gaining the confidence to make a few for this quilt will make the next set a breeze! Take your time and enjoy the process.
This modern quilt is eye-catching and can be customized with any colors you desire. I can’t wait to see your quilt!
Quilt sizes included in the pattern:
Baby - 49" x 49"

Oversized blocks make this geometric quilt fun to make, big or small! Value plays a big role in the neutral fabrics here. Carefully select light, medium and dark tones to add depth and movement to your quilt.

Sparkle Star
Stack up these alternating blocks to add a secondary pattern. This is a great skill builder if you are a new quilter with many options to personalize in the fabric combinations. The star emerges due to the deep tone in the triangles, keep this in mind as you select fabrics. If all your fabrics are of the same or similar value, your stars won’t sparkle. Look for three decidedly different tones when selecting your fabrics.
