Sweet Cherry Quilt Patterns

What’s not to like about cherries?  Yummy fruit to eat and so pretty to look at.  Plus they remind us of all the good things about summer.   So how about a few quilts that incorporate cherries?  Here’s what I found….

 

Berry Cherry by Thistledown & Co (you can’t find a Thistledown pattern that isn’t cheery!) is a penny rug.   Batiks, felted wool, and simple stitches make this adorable rug.  Quilting design is included.

 

 

This one makes me think “picnic”.    Cherry Blossom is a 54″ square quilt by Sandy Kop of American Jane Patterns.  The appliqued flowers sprinkled across the top add some whimsey.

 

 

Me and My Sister Designs created this Cherry Turnover quilt.  You can use charm squares and turnovers, and you won’t have to do any cutting for the main body of the quilt….. you’ll finish in no time!

 

 

Since we are still deep in winter, we’ll be seeing Cherry Blossoms before we see any cherries.  Yo-yos with stitched centers create the three dimensional flowers.  Other techniques used in the project are fusible applique, piecing (for the border) and the vase is stuffed to give it more dimension.  Full size applique patterns are included.

 

 

Very Cherry is a Bloom Creek pattern.  Easy pieced blocks are alternated with appliqued cherry blocks for a bright cheery quilt.  This easy quilt will brighten up any room.

 

You enjoy browsing quilt patterns…. I’m off to find a piece of cherry pie!
