Barn Dance
Barn Dance downloadable pattern
Finished Size: 68in x 68in
Skill level: Confident Beginner / Intermediate
Barn Dance was made literally in a barn whilst on holiday in France. We used a Barbara Brackman layer cake from her collection, Alice’s Scrapbag and the wonderful reproduction prints really came alive in the gorgeous Provençal sun. We used a Creative Grids Two Peaks in One ruler which made the cutting a breeze. You could also use a Tri-Recs or any other ruler which makes a 6in ‘triangle in a square’ block. We also used the Creative Grids Multi-Size 45°/90° ruler for creating half-square triangles from strips and again any other ruler which does this job would be suitable. We do provide templates as an alternative.
The combination of angles in this quilt design gives a fantastic illusion of curves and as long as you have good contrast in your fabrics, then you can’t go far wrong!
Requirements:
1 layer cake OR forty-two 10in squares
2¾ yards (2.5m) background fabric
½ yard (50cms) binding fabric
Creative Grids Two Peaks in One Ruler (CGR2P1) or similar ruler
Creative Grids Multi-Size 45°/90° (CGRMS4590) or similar ruler for cutting half-square triangles from strips.
Templates at the back of the pattern as an alternative.
IMPORTANT:
Our downloads are set in UK A4 paper size. If you are printing other than A4 size (US letter size for example) please make sure the templates (if you use them) are printed at 100%.
