ABOUT THE PATTERN
This is a patchwork pattern. All fabric is rotary cut and sewn together using conventional patchwork piecing.
This pattern also includes a diagram and chart showing all of the pieces needed to make each block. You can use this as a reference while making the pattern projects, or as a guide for making individual blocks and scrappy projects.
The Bigfoot block includes some small pieces. The pattern will walk you through the process of sewing it with both diagrams and written instructions for each step. The tree blocks are made of comparatively larger pieces that are simpler and faster to put together.
Among my patterns, Legendary is rated Skill Level 3 (of 5). You can read more about skill levels here.
ABOUT THE FABRIC
The fabrics in my sample quilt are from my Fall 2016 Pacific collection for Robert Kaufman, which is now out of print. You can make a quilt in a similar color scheme using Kona Natural as the Background, Kona Bonsai for the Trees, and Kona Roasted Pecan for Bigfoot and the Tree Trunks.
ABOUT THE QUILTING
My Picnic Quilt sample was free-motion quilted by me, on my Janome 1600p, in a woodgrain pattern.
