Gathering Flowers Quilt Pattern

Even flying geese need a little direction now and then! The design of this quilt is based on the central motif of flying geese, but additional elements give it a hint of native charm to arrive at a modern medallion destination. One single block design used in several color-clever ways gives the patchwork an overall complexity that is more simple to assemble than it appears.

Whether you plan your garden by color or let scrappy wildflowers take over, you will have beautiful flowers to gather with this quilt! The featured quilt mixes two different large scale block styles: the gathered flower block is a gorgeous shirred floral that twists into a stunning rosette, and the flat floral block plays the perfect supporting role.
