Quilt Pattern of the Week - Around the World Quilt: An Easy Strip-Pieced Trip Quilt!

This week's pattern of the week is Around the World, and today I'm sharing the design in new mockups in fresh fabric collections!

This is one pattern that I haven't sewn enough times, unfortunately.  I find it very relaxing to make with the strip piecing and assembling in quadrants instead of rows like most quilts are.

The Around the World quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Around the World Quilt Pattern Features

• Includes 4 sizes - Baby, Lap, Throw, and Queen

• The design is exactly the same in all quilt sizes; piece sizes increase as quilt sizes increase

• Yardage friendly

• Strip pieced

• Pattern includes a color key of the quilt shown on the pattern cover

• Skill Level:  Confident Beginner

The Around the World quilt pattern includes an accent print that appears in several places, and usually it ends up a darker color than the rest of the fabrics, though in one quilt below, the accent is solid white.  In the quilts above, the accent is navy blue.
