Kaleidoscope: Pre-Printed Quilt Pattern and FPP Templates
Choose options
Quilt pattern and all 113 FPP Templates will be printed on Newsprint and mailed to you. This pattern includes all the FPP papers needed to make the entire quilt!
The Kaleidoscope quilt pattern was inspired and created after the invention of the Kaleidoscope in 1817, and the quilt block accurately reflects the refraction of light seen when viewing a Kaleidoscope. This quilt provides an appearance of curves without piecing a single curved block! This quilt not only has Kaleidoscope blocks, but it also has a fun diamond border. Due to the angles in the Kaleidoscope quilt, using Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP) greatly simplifies the construction of the blocks. In addition, the border blocks have also been simplified by providing FPP templates. The final quilt is a throw size quilt that measures 60" X 72", and is perfect for snuggling under when watching a movie. And we'd like to provide a sincere thank you to Stitch with Rachel who made such a lovely video showcasing our Kaleidoscope quilt pattern.
It was such a pleasant surprise, and very well done! You can view the fun video on the Stitch with Rachel YouTube Channel. This pattern includes detailed fabric requirements, cutting instructions, sewing and assembly instructions, 113 FPP newsprint templates and a coloring page. The pattern assumes that you have basic knowledge of foundation paper piecing, and instructions on the FPP sewing technique are not included. However, the FPP templates are both easy and simple, perfect for those that are beginners at foundation paper piecing. All templates will be provided on 8.5 by 11 newsprint. Newsprint is perfect for FPP because it perforates so nicely when sewing, and removing it is easier than with standard printer paper.
