Modern Geometrics Quilt Pattern

Written by Ellen Mickelson | Aug 7, 2013 5:39:45 PM

We have a new pattern, Modern Geometrics, featuring our NEW Cuddle Classics Collection! Modern Geometrics can be made in 4 unique color combinations: Blue, Pink, Yellow and Green.

This fun, fresh pattern was designed by Heidi Pridemore. It includes Bubble Dot from Cuddle Classics, a Shannon Studio Collection™, Kozy Cuddle Solids, and Chevrons & ZigZags. The approximate finished size is 62” x 72”. The pattern is a free download! You can download it here.

And, here are some tips from Heidi on working with Cuddle:

  • Use a Walking Foot for all assembly if possible. Cuddle is very thick and slippery. The walking foot helps move the fabric through the machine evenly.
  • Pin the fabric pieces together every 2” to keep the fabrics from sliding while sewing. If one piece wants to curl up, put that piece on the bottom when sewing.
  • Use a Stretch 90/14 needle and increase stitch length.

Cuddles,
