Journey is Fat Quarter friendly and includes 9 sizes! You'll love how quick and easy it really is.
This version of Journey places the blues and reds in alternating columns to create uniformity in the quilt. Resembling waving flags, this color scheme is perfect for the Quilts of Valor program.

Beautiful Red, White, and Blue Fabrics!
This stunning quilt was made using a beautiful fabric collection called Hudson using deep red, white, and blue colors. This design would make an excellent quilt for the Quilt of Valor program, a program that makes quilts for veterans. I am so pleased with how this quilt turned out! Using bold and beautiful fabrics like this piece will surely make heads turn.
Let us take you on a Journey!
Journey is the second quilt pattern in the Donation Quilt Series that showcases quilt designs that use less fabrics with large blocks and allow quick and easy piecing so that you can make many more donation quilts at a much faster rate.
The Journey design uses an efficient piecing method to help eliminate fabric waste. The design is also Fat Quarter and 1/4-yard friendly, so you'll be able to finish your quilt in a snap with fabrics already in your stash!

Includes 9 Sizes
I always love an opportunity to spoil you with all the different size options for you to work with! The Journey quilt pattern includes 9 sizes - Baby, Lap, Throw, Large Throw, Twin, Full, Square Queen, Rectangular Queen, and King. Wow! The math is already done for you, making the cutting and piecing a faster process. This finished quilt was made in the Throw size, which measures approximately 54" x 72" for reference.
Longarm Machine Quilting
This quilt top was made by Kare Ybarra and quilted and bound by me. The quilting was done on my HandiQuilter Amara with ProStitcher. The design is a star and loop design in white thread. I chose this design to keep with the Quilt of Valor theme.

This pattern is not suitable for directional prints unless you know how to make HSTs so the prints face the same direction. I made a quilt sample with many directional prints and one or two HSTs end up upside down, even with proper piecing of the directional prints, simply because of the number of directional prints I had. I'm not really picky about prints upside down in general because it's freeing to not be concerned about that, but sideways prints? Not so much. This is a personal preference though!
