Flower Power Quilt by Quilt Doodle Designs

Today we are featuring our Flower Power Quilt by Quilt Doodle Designs. Flower Power is a more traditional-type quilt design, which includes beautiful floral cutouts and appliqued yo-yo centers. Around each flower is a border of small squares, which add a really fun detail. A lot of work, but visually worth it!

We chose to feature our Petite Plume by Andrea Turk collection, which was perfect with the powerful flowers in the quilt pattern. The bird/floral/feather prints in chartreuse, navy, and coral colorways matched together to create a sophisticated and clean design. We enjoyed Cindy of Quilt Doodle Designs’ unique style, and we had a wonderful time collaborating with her on this quilt pattern.

2. Print the templates (p. 6-7)  and trace the Flower template (9) times onto the paper-backed side of the iron-on adhesive, according to the manufacturer’s directions.

3. Iron the adhesive onto the Wrong Side of your 1/2 yard Fabric D piece, and cut out the flowers.

4. Peel the paper backing off the flowers, and iron (1) in the center of each 12-1/2” block as shown.

5. Appliqué the flowers in place by machine-sewing around their edges with a buttonhole or satin stitch, or hand-stitching in embroidery floss with a blanket stitch.

MAKE THE YO-YOS

1. Fold in the edges of each yo-yo circle by 1/4”, Wrong Sides together, and press.

2. Hand-stitch around the folded edge of a circle with a long running stitch, using fairly strong thread. Leave the end loose.

3. Pull gently on the end of the thread to gather the folded edge of the yo-yo toward the center, and knot the ends of thread together to secur the yo-yo. Repeat with the remaining yo-yo circles.

4. Hand-stitch each Fabric B yo-yo to the center of a Fabric C flower, and each Fabric C yo-yo to the center of a Fabric B flower, with the gathered side of the yo-yo facing out.

4. Measure the height of the quilt center through the middle. Cut (2) Border strips to this length; sew them to the left- and right-hand sides of the quilt center.

5. Measure the width of the quilt center through the middle including the Borders. Cut (2) Border strips to this length; sew them to the top and bottom of the quilt center. This completes the quilt top.

2. Join the (2) Backing rectangles along a 54” edge for the Backing.
