American Sampler Free Quilt Pattern by Marsha Evans Moore
American Sampler is an intermediate quilt designed by Marsha Evans Moore featuring Perfect Points II fabrics. Five fussy-cut print squares are set diagonally with printed triangles, narrow sashing and small contrasting squares. Multiple borders alternate narrow framing with wider fussy-cut prints to complete the 51-inch-square quilt. The pattern provides dimensions for clear templates used to center the printed designs, and its cutting chart includes fat-quarter quantities for the five center-square fabrics.
