Army Quilt Pattern - Full Size 72x84

Army Quilt Pattern, Finished size 72x84 inches

This Memorial Day I add the Army quilt pattern which was originally designed as a custom order. They wanted to make a quilt for a family member going into the Army. Combining my flag pattern with the requested tank and words, I came up with this quilt for her. A great quilt celebrating years of service or the start of a new adventure.

First rotary cutting strips of varying sizes for each color, then using a set of charts, cross cutting those strips into different length pieces, which with be labeled alphabetically. The shaping is done in the quick corner method, cutting squares, drawing a diagonal sew line on the back, and placing it on top of another piece. Finally you will sew the quilt row by row through each section following a full page color image with the pieced labeled.

The pattern is rated as an advance beginner. You will need some knowledge of rotary cutting, and be able to sew a straight and true 1/4 inch seam. There helpful videos on YouTube should you get stuck. (search Counted Quilts)
