Sources for Free Quilting Patterns

Apparently one of my popular posts in 2007 here at Quilting and Patchwork was More Free Quilting and Patchwork Patterns. This is a topic many quilters desire more information about.

I recently discovered another great listing of free quilting patterns at Quilting With Alison. She has found resources among supply manufacturers, fabric distributors and retailers that might interest you.

Alison has just started her quilting blog, but I’m impressed with her information and musings.

Autumn Quilt Pattern from the Domestik Goddess

Would you like a quilt in opulent autumn colors? Jen at so you wanna be a Domestik Goddess? has a pattern with suggested autumn colors on her blog. Check out Crossing Paths: Free Quilt Pattern for inspiration as you head into autumn.

My daughter tends toward autumn colors and leaf motifs in many of her quilts and fabric art. In fact she’s making a hanging to submit in an exhibit today, and it consists of falling leaves against a green, rust, and brown background, some of these made from her hand dyed or sun dyed fabrics.

What are you doing in your quilting world that’s inspired by autumn? (Now I realize in the southern hemisphere, you’re going into spring. So do you have spring inspired themes?)

Here are some more fall or autumn inspired ideas for quilts and hangings.

So quilters in other seasons don’t feel left out, here are some spring patterns and ideas!

More Free Quilting & Patchwork Patterns

I’ve noticed a number of quilting sites that offer free patterns for various projects. Among those with interesting patterns is Goldern Quilts, which offers “free quilt patterns from past issues of McCall’s Quick Quilts.”

The directions are very precise and give fabric amounts, pattern pieces, and construction tips. Some of the patterns are: Summer Spirit, 30s Something, A Beary Merry Christmas, A Day at the Beach, Americana Star, Autograph Album, and many others.

For more pattern ideas, you can always pick up a book of patterns.

As I travel around the Internet, I discover many interesting quilting sites. The most recent one is the World Wide Quilting Page at www.quilt.com. It’s described as “serving the World’s Quilters since May 4, 1994.

Within its pages, you’ll find many things of interest for the quilter including:

*How to’s

*Glossary of terms

*Quilt Blocks with free patterns

*Beginning Guide to Quilting

Browse around and you’ll find a treasure trove of quilting information.
