Robert Kaufman Angled Quilt Pattern by Elise Lea – Free Downloadable PDF

The Robert Kaufman Angled pattern, officially titled Just Kisses ANGLED, is a free downloadable PDF quilt pattern designed by Elise Lea for Robert Kaufman Fabrics. This intermediate-level quilting project produces a finished quilt measuring 60" x 70", making it a generous lap or throw size suitable for everyday use or gifting. The pattern is available at no cost and is intended for individual, non-commercial use only.

About the Design

The Just Kisses ANGLED quilt is a modern, graphic design that plays with angled geometry and a carefully curated multi-color palette. The word "Angled" in the title signals that the design relies on precise diagonal or angled piecing to create its visual movement and energy. This type of design is a hallmark of contemporary quilting, where bold color placement and sharp geometric lines work together to create a dynamic finished piece. The pattern is rated intermediate in difficulty, meaning it is best suited for quilters who are comfortable with accurate cutting, consistent quarter-inch seam allowances, and working with multiple fabric colors simultaneously.

Techniques Used

As a quilting pattern, Just Kisses ANGLED employs the core techniques of modern patchwork quilting. Key construction methods include:

• Precise rotary cutting – essential for achieving clean angled shapes across multiple fabric colors
• Accurate piecing with a consistent 1/4" seam allowance – specified throughout the pattern instructions
• Pressing seam allowances open – the pattern specifically instructs quilters to press seams open unless otherwise noted, which reduces bulk and helps angled seams lie flat
• Multi-fabric color planning – working with ten distinct fabric colors (labeled A through J) plus a binding fabric requires careful organization before cutting begins
• Quilt top assembly and backing construction – the pattern covers full quilt construction from cutting through finishing

The instruction to read through all steps before beginning is emphasized in the pattern notes, which is especially important for intermediate projects involving angled piecing where the sequence of assembly directly affects the accuracy of the finished design.

Fabrics and Materials

The pattern is specifically designed to feature Robert Kaufman fabrics, with all fabric selections identified by their official SKU numbers from the K001 collection. The palette spans a rich range of pinks, purples, and related tones, creating a cohesive and romantic color story. The ten quilt-top fabrics and their yardage requirements are as follows:

• Color A – Blush Pink (K001-1036): 1/3 yard
• Color B – Deep Rose (K001-1099): 1/3 yard
• Color C – Petal (K001-143): 2/3 yard

All fabric amounts are based on a width of fabric (WOF) of 42 inches, which is standard for quilting cottons. In addition to the quilt top fabrics, quilters will need 3-7/8 yards of backing fabric to complete the project. Batting in an appropriate size for a 60" x 70" quilt will also be required, though specific batting is not named in the pattern excerpt.
