Ideas to inspire

There are so many possibilities with this beautiful bundle. Why not make a picnic blanket using blocks such as this pretty antique star block. We might not be able to go to the park or beach right now but you can always have a picnic in your back garden or on your balcony!

Failing that, it would make a happy drape for a child’s den. Or just make one block and turn it into a cushion or set of cushions – they would look lovely in your kitchen or on the patio chairs. This star block comes together surprisingly quickly as it’s just made up of half square triangles in a clever orientation. If you’re looking for a quick finish, why not make a set of napkins. You could add some appliqué detail or add some embroidery to make them extra special.

It’s always lovely to bring a handmade touch to the dinner table.

Or why not keep the kids organised and make a cute patchwork pencil case. It’s the perfect and stylish way to keep those felt tip pens and crayons tidy! My daughter has snagged this one already!

Colour combos

This bundle would also look great paired with sunny yellows and oranges, or why not add in hot pinks for a wonderful tropical feel. With 16 fat quarters to choose from in this bundle, the possibilities really are endless!
