Lemon Fresh Quilt Pattern

I have wanted to make a lemon quilt for the last 4 years and I finally did it!!!  It’s available for instant download in my Etsy shop!

lemon fresh quilt 9Fat Quarter Shop is celebrating “Year of the Fat Quarter”.  Each month they are offering an amazingly curated color bundle.  June is yellow!!  Once I saw Fat Quarter Shop’s yellow fat quarter bundle I knew my lemon quilt was meant to be!  Lemons are one of my favorite fruits ever and living in California there is no shortage of them!!  I wanted a clean looking quilt (lemons are always used in cleaning products, right?) and a vintage feel at the same time…..and I think I accomplished both!  I am so super in love!!

There are 15 delicious yellow fabrics in the June bundle and there are 15 lemony star blocks in the quilt and 15 appliquéd lemons!  It’s works so perfectly!

I love that the yellow tones are not all the same.  There are some buttery yellows, some tart yellows, some sunshine yellows, and some gold yellows!  It really gives the quilt depth.

I had so much fun making these half square triangle stars!  You could totally mix up the yellows for scrappy stars!

There is something about yellow and green that just feel fresh!!  ….and there is something about yellow and green that make you thirsty for lemonade!

The quilt measures 60″ x 72″ which is a great throw size.

The quilt is made with 15 yellow fat quarters, 5 dark green fat quarters, and 5 light green fat quarters.  The rest is background fabric!  I love a stash buster quilt!

The lemons are machine appliquéd using Heat n Bond Lite – which is my favorite way to appliqué!!

I decided that Mufasa looks extremely handsome in yellow and green!  He’s such a good quilt model 🙂lemon fresh quilt 19
