Identification of sample quilt blocks or patches. |
This Amish Sampler is made up of eight different designs. It is an Amish "interpretation"
because the patches are pieced and quilted using a bold, simple color
palette most frequently associated with the overall designs of Amish
quilters. The printable faux quilt pattern below is Playscale or 1:6.
- Ladies' Beautiful Star Patch
- Basic Mosaic Square Patch
- This blue patch is a simplistic interpretation of the Primrose Patch
- Mosaic Patch in the shape of a blossom
- Star of Many Points Patch
- Tulip Patch
- Mosaic Patch in Orange
- The Basket Patch
Go to the following links to see how to use heat transfer papers:
- PPD light transfer paper
- DIY T-shirts using avery iron on transfer paper for light fabric (they make papers for dark fabrics)
- Transfer paper for dark fabrics
After you transfer the sampler quilt below to dark fabric, finish the edges with a colorful or black bias tape. Add "quilting" details with a bold yellow thread.
You could also make a comforter using the same design by layering your printed fabric on top of a black fleece. Then quilt the two sides together between each block to give the doll comforter a bit of dimension.
