Riley Blake Hocus Pocus Panel Quilt

What Is Being Made

The Riley Blake Hocus Pocus Panel Quilt is a beginner-friendly quilted wall hanging or throw quilt with a finished size of 36" x 36". This downloadable PDF pattern from Echo Park Paper Co. features a festive Hocus Pocus-themed fabric panel as the centerpiece, surrounded by coordinating borders to create a complete quilt project 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 technique and terminology. The construction process involves piecing fabric pieces with precise seam allowances, adding borders to frame the central panel, and then finishing the quilt through layering and binding. The quilt is completed by layering the quilt top, batting, and backing fabric together, then binding the edges with coordinating strips.

Fabric and Materials

The Hocus Pocus Panel Quilt uses Riley Blake Designs fabrics in a coordinated color palette:

• 1 Multi Hocus Pocus Panel (P9495 Multi) – ⅝ yard for the focal point
• Cream Main fabric (C9490 Cream) – ⅓ yard
• Orange Swiss Dot fabric (C670-60 Orange) – ⅓ yard
• Riley Blake Confetti Cottons – for binding strips to finish the quilt edges

The pattern includes two borders: Border 1 with side borders measuring 24" and top/bottom borders measuring 28", and Border 2 with side borders measuring 28" and top/bottom borders measuring 36". All measurements include a ¼" seam allowance, which is the standard seam allowance used throughout the project.

This is a beginner-level quilting project, making it an excellent choice for those new to quilting. The pattern provides clear instructions for sewing pieces with right sides together and offers a straightforward approach to quilt construction. The downloadable PDF format allows quilters to access the pattern immediately and reference it throughout their project, with the option to check the Riley Blake Designs website for any pattern updates or revisions before beginning.
