You guys know I love designing and sewing with pre-cuts! Jelly Rolls are my fave, but Layer Cakes are my close second and you can use either with this pattern (or yardage!).
Tangled is one of my newest quilts/patterns I made with Forget-Me-Not. I’ve had this quilt messily sketched into my notebook for years, but for some reason didn’t really spark much interest until I started this quilt. This block has many different names and variations, but mostly commonly I’ve seen it called a Celtic knot, and often a lovers knot, or slip knot.
Whenever I’m designing with pre-cuts, my main goal is to be able to make a Throw size quilt with just one Jelly Roll or Layer Cake. It makes my brain work and takes a little creativity to be able to get enough fabric and blocks out of the strips…I love the challenge.
For this quilt, there are a handful of scrappy blocks thrown in that allow this quilt to be made with less strips/squares. You can certainly leave them out if you have more fabric available, but I ended up loving the way they add a little interest to this design.
Knot and Thread Design did the quilting, it adds the perfect amount of texture and character that this quilt needs.
This pattern includes 5 sizes, and will probably be the pattern I use to make a Queen size quilt for my 15 year old. It has a more masculine feel and he likes geometric designs….but mostly it’s easy and I like easy when it comes to making big quilts!
Tangled is in my shop now as a PDF here, or a Paper pattern here.
Forget-Me-Not isn’t available yet if you would like to make this exact quilt, but as soon as it comes out I’ll post where you can find it!
