The time has finally come! I have a brand new quilt pattern that I am so pleased to share with you! Meet Gradient - a quilt design that creates a stunning ombre effect using 7 fabrics. Includes 6 sizes - Baby, Lap, Throw, Twin, Queen, and King.
This is the scrappy version of Gradient with each colorway made from a variety of prints, instead of a single fabric as shown in the other Gradient quilts. It was so fun to make a happy rainbow quilt from my scraps!
The Gradient quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.
Introducing Gradient
This Gradient quilt was made in the Baby size, which measures approximately 43" x 43". You will find yourself turning to the Gradient quilt pattern again and again for its timeless beauty. The pattern incorporates a stunning stream of rainbow colors interchanging from corner to corner. Oh so rainbow-y!! 🌈
Includes 6 Sizes
The Gradient quilt pattern is available in 6 fabulous sizes. Gradient uses subtle hue changes to create an ombre effect diagonally across the quilt top. Make each colorway a single fabric or use a variety of prints in 7 colorways.
Beautiful Scrappy Rainbow Prints
The fabrics are an assortment of rainbow colors from my stash of rainbow fabrics. Each colorway includes a variety of prints, and I think there are only one or two duplicate prints. The sashing is solid white, and the setting triangles and border are a fun scattered print of white dots on black. The backing is Widescreen in Black by Robert Kaufman. The binding is a red print, found in one of the squares also, and available in our fabric shop right here.
The Gradient quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Be sure to check out the other Gradient quilts in these blog posts. They demonstrate two other fabric selection methods that result in stunning quilts from 7 fabrics creating an ombre effect, instead of a rainbow.
- Lap size in Watercolors (we have quilt kits of this one!)
Longarm Machine Quilting
This quilt was quilted with a Heart in Heart Border digital design, which came with my Handi Quilter machine, in white thread. This design is great because the hearts face both up and down, so no matter how you look at it, you'll see hearts facing you. With this design, this quilt is perfect for a rainbow baby.
