Please note: This listing is for a downloadable PDF pattern, not a finished item.
An original appliqué block inspired by modern Celtic harps and traditional Hawaiian quilting patterns. Celtic harps have been around as we know them since at least 900 C.E. Smaller than concert harps, they often use levers to change the pitch of a string. Inspired by the long tradition of lever harps in the British Isles, the border features thistles and waves. For a simpler, smaller block, work only the center harp design without the outer border and quilt in echo lines. Adjust fabric sizes accordingly.
The pattern includes full-size eighth-fold templates for 14" and 18" blocks. Print actual size and cut on a folded square of fabric. Cutting and assembly instructions are included, but finishing instructions are not. The finished block may be used as part of a quilt, pillow, wall hanging, or any other project.
Supplies:
Design Fabric: 1 fat quarter (18" square)
Background Fabric: 1 yd (20"x 20" square)
Backing Fabric: 1 yd (20"x 20" square)
Batting: 21"x 21" (approx)
Notions:
Quilting and appliqué needles; thread for quilting and appliqué; basting thread or pins; sharp scissors; thimble; pencil or erasable fabric marker; quilting hoop.
Note on fabrics: Solid, marbled, or batik work best. Busy patterns may obscure the design. 100% cotton is recommended.
