Riley Blake Paperdoll Posie Patch Quilt

What Is Being Made

The Paperdoll Posie Patch Quilt is a beginner-friendly quilting project designed by J. Wecker Frisch for Riley Blake Designs. This downloadable PDF pattern creates a finished quilt measuring 46" x 46", featuring a charming patchwork design composed of individual 10" x 10" blocks. The quilt combines multiple fabric prints from the Riley Blake collection to create an appealing visual composition suitable for quilters new to the craft.

Quilting Techniques Used

This project employs fundamental quilting techniques appropriate for beginners. The pattern requires basic knowledge of quilting terminology and standard quilting methods. Fabric pieces are sewn with right sides together using standard ¼" seam allowances throughout the construction. The quilt is assembled through block-by-block construction, where individual Posie blocks are created and then arranged into the final quilt layout. The pattern includes clear block diagrams and quilt assembly instructions to guide the quilter through each step of the process.

Stitches and Construction Methods

The Paperdoll Posie Patch Quilt uses straightforward piecing techniques centered on straight seams and basic patchwork assembly. Quilters will work with:

• Strip cutting and piecing to create the foundational block units
• Square and rectangle piecing for block construction
• Border assembly using 6½" wide strips
• Standard ¼" seam allowances throughout all piecing
