If you love a bright, cheerful quilt that comes together without any fuss, this free Blocka Dot pattern is a real treat. Simple blocks in happy corals, fresh greens and deep navy stack up like a playful patchwork, mixing dotty prints with calm solids. At 63" x 72" it makes a lovely throw or a generous lap quilt to snuggle under.
Here is why this one is worth making:
- It is wonderfully beginner friendly. The blocks are all straight seams and simple shapes, so there are no points to match and it is a very relaxing, satisfying sew.
- It is a joyful way to play with colour. Mixing cheerful dots with solid shades gives the quilt a fun, modern bounce, and you can shift the whole mood just by choosing your palette.
- It is friendly with precuts. The design works beautifully with charm squares, so a pretty little bundle can carry you a long way and save you time at the cutting mat.
