I can't believe it's almost the end of the summer! But I think my Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt with Clementine fabrics just shouts summertime!!!
Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt is a free pattern at Fat Quarter Shop and features large blocks that show off fabric prints so nicely! It is such a fun quilt to make!!! After all, a Ferris Wheel quilt should be totally fun to make!
I just love the bright and happy prints from the Clementine Collection designed by Melody Miller with Ruby Star Society for Moda Fabrics.

Making your Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt larger (Twin XL no borders)
Fat Quarter Shop updated the Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt Pattern with multiple sizes! I chose the Twin XL format with 20 blocks and no border. I love it!
Fat Quarter Shop also has a Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt Kit available featuring Northern Lights by Annie Brady for Moda Fabrics. So perfect for Christmas!
I decided to make a scrappy backing with the left over fabric scraps! I LOVE it! I'm even thinking of writing a quilt pattern for it too! I love a reversible quilt!
I love all the free quilt patterns that Fat Quarter Shop shares!

Love how you have used the leftovers for the backing! I had not thought of using the "cut-off" hsts before, but that is a great idea. Plus, piecing the additional yardage. I will have to keep it in mind for the future.
