If you love a quilt with a fresh, modern feel, this free Out of Step pattern is going to catch your eye. It plays with clean lines and a beautiful palette of cool, calming solids, creating a design that feels graphic and lively while still being wonderfully soothing to look at. It is the kind of quilt that looks perfectly at home in a bright, contemporary space.
Here is why this one is worth making:
- It has a striking modern look. The offset design gives a playful sense of movement, so your finished quilt feels current and full of energy.
- The solid palette is a joy. Working with a coordinated range of solids lets the colours do all the talking, for a crisp and polished result.
- It is a lovely way to practise your piecing. The clean shapes are satisfying to sew and help you build lovely, accurate seams.
