Pattern of the Month

This month’s Pattern of the Month is Berry Sorbet — a quilt that started with hard geometry and ended somewhere soft, cool, and sweet.

Inspired by the clean, repeating lines of concrete breeze blocks, Berry Sorbet began as a straightforward design experiment and took a few detours along the way (including some very regrettable peach-and-blue test blocks). After some reworking with smaller blocks, softer pinks, a clean white background, and just a pop of green, the quilt took on a whole new life. The final design still honors the structure at its core but softens it with a fresh, summery palette and a layout that feels crisp and light.

This is a versatile and scrap-friendly quilt pattern, written with confident beginners in mind. You’ll find instructions for four sizes — throw, twin, queen, and king — as well as flexible cutting options for scraps, fat quarters, and yardage. It’s a great project for working through your stash while still feeling bright and intentional.
