Summer Breeze Quilt Pattern in 5 Sizes!

This post may contain affiliate links. Thank you for your support!


Summer Breezes are coming!  I've a quilt pattern ready for you - it's Summer Breeze!  The pattern includes 5 sizes - Baby, Throw, Twin XL, Queen, and King.  This pattern is fat quarter friendly - just grab FQs in a single colorway, add two accents, and Go!


Do you see the subtle chevron design?  Chevrons were so popular a few years ago, so we'll call this the updated chevron version!

This quilt is made with blocks which makes getting those HSTs pointed the same direction a little easier.  By adding a step to make blocks rather than laying out rows of HSTs, there is a lot less to keep think about.  Hmm, I'm not sure I'm saying that in a way that makes sense.  What I mean is that it's easier to make a pile of identical blocks and then lay out the blocks than it is to lay out a pile of HSTs and hope they are all oriented correctly.  Make sense?!?


This quilt pattern includes a Twin XL size, a size that isn't included in quilt patterns very often.  Due to the repeat of the blocks, the Twin ended up longer than usual, so the size is perfect for a Twin XL, the size of beds in dorm rooms.  We have a Twin XL in one of our guest rooms to accommodate taller guests.  But that room has been taken over as a class room by my daughter during #quarantine.  She does her schoolwork and math tutoring online in there.   She is in her third year of college.

I love the subtle chevron! Like a nice little surprise tucked into all that ocean goodness. FQS is out of stock of Ocean Elements but will notify when back in stock.
