New Quilt Pattern - Jolie Quilted Runner and Wall Hanging Quilts in First Blooms!

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


I am very excited to announce my latest quilt pattern with you called Jolie!  Jolie is a fun and unique table runner and wall hanging quilt pattern that is quick, easy, and so much fun to work with!  If you are looking to make a mini eye-catching quilt that has a little flair, then this is the pattern for you!

The Jolie quilt pattern includes 6 sizes so you can make the table runner, table toppers, and wall hangings in the size that will fit your space perfectly! 

This pattern is charm square friendly.  You can cut squares from layer cakes, fat quarters, or your scrap bins for a scrappy quilt uniquely yours.

The Jolie quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop here.


The Mister and I took the Jolie quilts to Ariel Foundation in Mount Vernon, Ohio, a park where a glass factory previously stood.  It's now a 200+ acre park.  It was a beautiful, crisp fall day!  There are lots of brick walls to hang quilts from.



Say Hello to Jolie!


Jolie is a modern charm square friendly design with a light and dark accent which includes the binding.  The design includes a bold accent that frames the quilt.  The pattern is perfect for beginners who are looking for a project to help them gain more experience under their needle.  A centerpiece like this will make a cheery table!




With 6 sizes, your table and walls are covered!


The Jolie quilt pattern includes 6 sizes so you can make the table runner, table toppers, and wall hangings in the size that will fit your space perfectly!  No more tiny table runners swallowed up on your large table - the Large runner is a whopping 23" x 62".  Or maybe you have the opposite problem, and table runner patterns are too large for your small table.  Jolie has you covered with a Small Runner measuring 17" x 34" and a Small Square measuring 23" x 23".

To make fabric selection easy and to ultimately reduce fabric waste, the Binding is included with the Dark Accent fabric.

The Jolie quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop here.





Lovely Floral Fabrics!


This stunning floral version of Jolie is the perfect Spring-themed or fall-themed quilts!  Fabrics are from the First Blooms collection by Heather Peterson for Riley Blake Designs.  The red, orange, yellow, teal, and green colors balance each other out splendidly and remind me of a Spring morning!

The dark accent, light accent, binding, and backing are all prints from the First Blooms collection.



Quilt Kits Available!


I have recently curated Quilt Kits for Jolie in First Blooms.  The quilt kit includes a layer cake square plus yardage so you can make up to 5 small quilts.  Yes - FIVE!  The quilt kit will make one of the following combinations of quilts:

  • 5 Medium Table Runners
  • 3 Medium Table Runners and 2 Medium Squares
  • 1 Large Runner and 1 Large Square
  • 1 Large Runner and 3 Medium Runners or 3 Medium Squares


A note about fabric placement


For this quilt pattern, I recommend laying out all of the pieces before sewing to make sure you like the way the prints play next to each other.  In order to achieve good pop of the accent fabric against the other prints, fabric placement is important.  

In these quilts, the dark accent fabric is called Denim.  This fabric collection has only two light prints, so fabric placement is really easy.  Really, the only suggestions are to set aside the squares in the same print as the dark accent (Mini Blooms in Denim) and to avoid placing Denim prints next to the Denim dark accent print.  In the table runner, I placed the Denim prints down the center; and in the square topper, the Denim prints are placed in a scattered 5-patch layout.  All other prints are placed randomly.



Longarm Machine Quilting


The longarm quilting design I used is Cottage Core 1 by Melissa Kelley 2025 in Superior Omni Yellow thread.  I am sure tickled how this thread blended in so well with all of the fabrics.  This was quilted on my HandiQuilter Amara with ProStitcher.

The Jolie quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop here.
