There is something truly captivating about a quilt where bright little shapes seem to float across a deep, calm background, and this free Floating Jewels pattern does exactly that. Rich midnight and cadet blues set the stage for warm jewel toned accents, and at a lovely 55" x 66" it makes a beautiful throw for curling up with on a quiet evening.
Here is why this one is worth making:
- The floating effect is magical. Those bright jewels appear to hover over the darker background, giving the quilt a wonderful sense of depth.
- It is a gorgeous study in contrast. Pairing deep, moody tones with warm pops of colour makes each little jewel really glow.
- The size is just right. At 55" x 66" it is a generous throw, cosy enough to snuggle under yet very achievable to finish.
