Bold Bow - new pillow cover block quilt pattern

 Hello, everyone!

I'm so glad to launch a new quilt block pattern I just finished to write!

I named it Bold Bow. It's obvious why, I think.

So, a few words about it.

Bold Bow - One Block Pillow Cover Quilt Pattern  is a flexible and practical quilt pattern for intermediate quilters.

Finished Size:

  • Unfinished block before quilting: 17"
  • Finished pillow cover: 16"

Overview of the Pattern

This quilt pattern offers an elegant and simple approach to creating a one-block pillow cover with mitred corners. While at first glance, it may appear similar to other patterns with a central square, this design introduces a unique and efficient method of piecing the central square without fragmenting special prints or pieced blocks. The result? A seamless, polished look with minimal effort.

The Bold Bow pattern provides a step-by-step guide, ensuring a smooth sewing experience with clear instructions (and more than 40 images) and valuable tips. Even quilters who have struggled with achieving perfect piecing before will find success with this design.

The main steps of the pattern are:

  1. Preparing the materials
  2. Preparing the block units
  3. Assembling the block
  4. Finishing the pillow cover front
  5. Preparing the pillow cover back
  6. Assembling the pillow cover
  7. Finishing the pillow cover
  8. Layout variation ideas (plus suggestion for making a quilt from 16 smaller blocks - quilt math included).
Why Choose This Pattern?
  • Innovative Piecing Method: Unlike traditional designs that use QSTs or appliqué, this pattern offers a fresh approach that preserves the design continuity of feature prints or pieced blocks used in the central square.
  • Intermediate-Friendly: Ideal for those with experience handling bias-cut pieces.
  • Quick & Efficient: The block can be completed in under two hours, making it an excellent choice for quilters looking for a rewarding project without extensive time commitment.
  • Fabric Versatility: Works well with a variety of fabrics, including:
    • Quilting cotton
    • Thin denim
    • Cotton duck
    • Lightweight home decor fabric
    • Canvas

·   Fat quarter friendly

  • Great for Solid and Print Fabrics: Whether you prefer vibrant prints or classic solids, this pattern enhances the beauty of any fabric combination.
