Pocket Full of Posies Free Quilt Pattern by Sue Pickering & Jean Katherine Smith quilt pattern summary
- Fussy-cut the floral centers and cut the corner triangles, background squares and setting pieces. Starch the coral setting fabric before cutting to help control the diagonal edges.
- Sew corner triangles around each floral center. Lay out the complete quilt, alternating pieced blocks and background squares in diagonal rows with the setting triangles.
- Join the diagonal rows to complete the center. Add the side inner borders, then the top and bottom inner borders, and repeat for the outer border.
- Prepare the backing, make the quilt sandwich and quilt as desired. Bind the finished quilt.
