Counted Quilts Sea Turtle Quilt Pattern
A great pattern for beginning quilters. All straight cutting, and straight seams.
The pattern first uses a chart with the given number of strips to be cut for each color. Second, it has a set of charts with piece lengths to be cut and labeled from those strips. The shaping is done with quick corner triangles, or the “snowball method” where a sew line is drawn corner to corner on a square and place on top of another square or rectangle. Once those squares are marked you follow a full page color labeled image of the quilt top, assembling piece by piece row by row. Lastly there are some basic finishing instructions.
I have made this Sea Turtle a few times. I really like the look of it in rich batiks. I did the red / orange because I like the contrast with the blue water, but I have seen it made in more traditional green turtle.
