Picket Fence Square Throw Quilt in Berry Market

Today I am sharing a new quilt in one of my most popular quilt patterns - Picket Fence!  Picket Fence is a multi-sized quilt pattern that includes fabric requirements using 10" layer cake squares, fat quarters, or a combination of 10" squares and strips in the bed quilt sizes.

You'll love that you don't have to cut your favorite fabrics into small pieces, and you can let them shine in this quilt pattern!  The pieced blocks set with the large squares of fabric is a striking symmetrical design.

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Meet Picket Fence

The Picket Fence pattern allows for a lot of creative freedom.  The blocks can be oriented in different directions to change the look of the quilt, and both of these layout options are included in the quilt pattern.

This design looks great in many fabric collections.  Sweet pastels or bold, masculine prints are perfect for Picket Fence.  This way, you can make a quilt for everyone on your quilt-it list!  Using some of your favorite fabrics in a variety of hues in the smaller pieced blocks can make your quilt sparkle even more!  The pieced blocks are a great place to use some lighter prints.

7 Sizes Included

Picket Fence includes 7 sizes - Baby, Square Throw, Rectangle Throw, Twin, Square Queen, Rectangle Queen, and King.  With all the different sizes you can choose from, you should be covered for just about any project!  I love doing all of the math, so I've done it for you, and you can select your fabric and pick up the pattern and begin cutting without doing any math calculations to change the quilt size.

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Picket Fence Rectangular Throw Quilt in One Fine Day by Bonnie and Camille!

Today I'm sharing a Picket Fence quilt in the Rectangular Throw size in Bonnie and Camille's One Fine Day fabric collection on a navy background.  The Picket Fence quilt pattern includes two layout options, one with all of the pieced blocks oriented vertically, as shown in this quilt, and the other with the pieced blocks alternating horizontally and vertically by row.

This fabric collection with its wide variety of prints in navy, aqua, red, orange, pink, and green, works well with a dark background, and the large pieces in Picket Fence lets these beautiful fabrics really shine.  Many times in quilting we cut fabric into very small pieces, and it is rewarding to keep favorite prints as large pieces in this quilt.

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

All the Sizes and Two Layout Options!

The Picket Fence quilt pattern includes 7 sizes!

     *  Baby  48" x 48"

     *  Throw  67" x 67"

     *  Rectangular Throw  57" x 76"

     *  Twin  67" x 86"

     *  Square Queen  95" x 95"

     *  Rectangular Queen  95" x 105"

     *  King  105" x 105"

Two layout options really change up the look of the quilt design.  The option with the pieced blocks alternating horizontally and vertically is shown below, also in One Fine Day by Bonnie and Camille.  All of the other pictures are of the quilt with the pieced blocks placed vertically.

Longarm Quilting Design

The quilting design is a swirling digital design using navy thread.  Quilted on my Handi Quilter Fusion with Pro Stitcher.

One Fine Day Picket Fence Throw Quilt

Today I'm sharing another peek at a Picket Fence quilt one of my sewists made last year.  This popular quilt is sewn up with One Fine Day by Bonnie and Camille.  This fabric collection looks so nice and really sparkles against the navy blue background.

Picket Fence is the second pattern I wrote back in 2015, and it's still super popular today.  As a side note, pattern number 93 is in the works as we speak, phew!  

This is the original pieced picket block pattern, and there are several more in the Busy Hands Quilts line.  Other patterns that use blocks similar to this are Mini Picket Fence, Home Awaits, and Family Ties.

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

All the Sizes and Two Layout Options Included

The Picket Fence quilt pattern includes seven sizes - Baby, Square Throw, Rectangular Throw, Twin, Square Queen, Rectangular Queen, and King.  You're covered for any size you need!

Also included are two layout options - one with pieced blocks alternating horizontally and vertically which creates a framed look to the large blocks, and the second layout option is all of the blocks placed vertically (or you could place them all horizontally, as well).  The vertical layout was discovered by one of you a number of years ago, and integrated into a revision of the pattern.

Precut Friendly Pattern

One Fine Day is a lovely collection of large and small florals, checks, geometrics, and tone-on-tones in red, pink, squa, navy, apple green, and orange.  Nested against a navy blue background, the prints really sparkle!

Picket Fence is a layer cake friendly quilt pattern for all sizes up to Twin.  The pieced blocks are strip pieced from the layer cake squares.  In the Queen and King sizes, jelly roll strips are added to a layer cake for more efficient piecing.

This pattern is also fat quarter friendly!

You won't be sewing together individual squares with Picket Fence!

It's so easy to use your stash for this pattern, too.  

Longarm Machine Quilting

This Picket Fence quilt is quilted with a spiral design in navy thread on my HandiQuilter Fusion with Pro-Stitcher.  

The binding is a red and pink diagonal stripe fabric from the One Fine Day collection.

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is quick and easy and perfect for beginners.  You'll dip your toes into strip piecing and learn a lot with this simple, striking quilt pattern.  And you'll get to use your favorite layer cake squares, to boot!

The Picket Fence quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.
