Liberty Tudor Quilt from the Emporium Collection

What is Being Made

The Liberty Tudor Quilt is a beginner-friendly quilting project that produces a finished quilt measuring 62 inches by 74 inches. This downloadable PDF pattern is part of the Emporium Collection and features a classic block-based design with a finished block size of 10 inches by 10 inches. The quilt combines multiple fabric pieces to create a traditional patchwork composition suitable for quilters new to the craft.

Quilting Techniques Used

This pattern requires a basic knowledge of quilting technique and terminology. The construction method involves fundamental quilting processes including piecing fabric squares and strips together, assembling blocks, and adding borders to create the final quilt top. The pattern includes specific instructions for measuring through the center of the quilt before cutting border pieces, ensuring proper fit and alignment. All sewing is done with right sides of fabric together unless otherwise specified in the instructions. The pattern accounts for ¼ inch seam allowances throughout the construction process.

Stitches and Construction Methods

The Tudor Quilt uses standard piecing seams to join fabric pieces together. The construction involves cutting and sewing multiple fabric squares and strips in various sizes, then assembling these pieces into 10 inch by 10 inch blocks. Once blocks are completed, they are sewn together to form the quilt top. Border strips are added around the perimeter of the assembled blocks. The pattern includes binding fabric that is cut into strips and applied to finish the edges of the completed quilt.

Materials and Fabric Requirements

Fabric: The Liberty Tudor Quilt pattern requires 15 Emporium Collection Fat Quarters as the primary fabric components. Additional yardage includes 1½ yards of Wild Bloom C (fabric number 04775901C), ¼ yard of Turner C (fabric number 04775903C), 2⅝ yards of White Wiltshire Shadow (fabric number 04775715Z), and ⅝ yard of fabric for binding. The White Wiltshire Shadow fabric serves as a background or neutral element throughout the design.

Cutting Requirements: The pattern specifies precise cutting instructions for all fabric pieces. From the Fat Quarter Bundle and White Wiltshire Shadow, quilters cut multiple squares in various sizes including 4⅞ inch by 4⅞ inch squares, 3 inch by 3 inch squares, and 2½ inch by 2½ inch squares. Additional strips measuring 2½ inches wide are cut from the width of fabric (WOF). The pattern requires 76 squares measuring 2½ inches by 2½ inches and 13 strips of 2½ inches by the width of fabric. Seam allowances should be measured through the center of the quilt before cutting border pieces to ensure accurate sizing.
