DOG PARK

Tippi, Cookie, Bernadette, Pickles, Lucky, Ginger, Edgar, Wadsworth, Buttercup, Jeff, and Clover are all ready to play in the dog park. These happy pups are pieced using conventional patchwork techniques. No templates or paper piecing! 

The pattern includes a detailed chart showing the specific fabrics I used to make my samples, but don’t hesitate to make different fabric/color choices! I’ve tried to keep some of the block designs ambiguous enough to be interpreted as different types of dogs, so you can have fun mixing and matching fabrics to make blocks that look more like your own furry friends.

Dog Park includes instructions for making a 68” x 86” Large Quilt with Tennis Ball Borders, a 68” x 72” Large Quilt, a 55” x 60” Medium Quilt, and a 40” x 50” Small Quilt. Please refer to the pattern back image for more details.

ABOUT THE FABRIC

My sample quilts were made with solid basics from Robert Kaufman Fabrics.

My Large Quilt with Tennis Ball Borders has a Kona Astral background. The dogs in the quilt are made with a combination of Kona Solids and Essex linen blends. The fabric chart in the pattern details these fabrics.

The Large Quilt (without the tennis ball borders) shown on this page has an Essex yarn-dyed linen background. All of the dogs in this quilt are made with Kona Solids. The color palette of the dogs is similar to the other quilt, but a little brighter and warmer. You can use this fabric guide to make a quilt with those fabrics.

QUILTING NOTE

My samples were quilted by Emily Hoppe of So Sunny Quilts. The Large Quilt with Tennis Ball Borders (Astral background) features Jess Zeigler’s Trace. The Large Quilt (Seafoam Background) features Julie Hirt’s Typewriter Ribbon.
