🌸 Framed Spring Bloom Quilted Placemat – Free Pattern + Tutorial

Looking for a sweet and simple quilting project that brightens your table? This Framed Spring Bloom Placemat is the perfect mix of charm and ease. Measuring 20.5" x 13.5", it's a great weekend project that lets you play with color while using up some favorite scraps!

✂️ What You’ll Need:

To get started, gather your favorite floral prints, soft blues, and a small piece of batting or fusible fleece. Here's a quick list of what I used (you can click the links below if you need supplies—some are affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission at no cost to you 💛):

• Slotted ruler for quilting

• Fusible batting

• Rotary cutter

• Neutral thread for piecing and quilting

• Pro Smart Iron

🧵 About the Pattern:

This placemat features:

• A flower block with a pieced stem and leaves at the center

  
  

  

  
  

• Flying Geese columns on both sides

• A simple floral border to frame it all beautifully

Whether you hand quilt, machine quilt, or use fusible batting, this project comes together quickly—and makes a lovely gift too!

🪡 Instructions Overview:

1. Make the Flower Block Piece together a 3x3 flower unit, add the stitched leaf and stem unit, then finish with background strips.

2. Flying Geese Borders Use the classic stitch-and-flip method to make 12 geese units. Sew them into two columns—8 units per side. But if you want to save time, give this Flying Geese 4-at-a-Time method a try!

3. Assemble the Top Attach the flying geese columns to each side of the flower block. Add the side, top and bottom borders.

4. Finish the Placemat Layer with batting and backing, stitch around the edges (leaving a small gap), turn right side out, and topstitch to finish.
