Hello Quilty friends! Today I'm sharing my newest quilt, Firework Fizz - Garden Party! I absolutely love the bold colors of Garden Party plus the collection is full of floral prints - my favorite! Garden Party is the newest collection designed by Keera Job for Riley Blake Designs.
I love the large floral designs of Garden Party so I wanted to choose a quilt pattern that had large blocks so the fabric designs would shine! Firework Fizz is the perfect pattern with large blocks so you only need 9 fat quarters to create a generous lap size quilt!
I added an extra outer border to my Firework Fizz so this version is 70" x 70" ! I love this larger size plus the floral print NEEDED to be a border :). Firework Fizz pattern is written with traditional cutting and piecing directions, but is easily adaptable to use with your AccuQuilt GO! Qube Mix & Match 8" Block - no trimming needed for half-square triangles!
Firework Fizz Quilt Pattern only requires 9 fat quarters (1 fat quarter per block) and is a block based pattern so you can easily make the quilt larger or smaller by adjusting how may fat quarters you use! Firework Fizz PDF pattern available HERE.
