QUILTED PORTRAITS
Design your pattern on 8 ½ x 11 paper. Use an 8” square with a ¼” seam allowance. Number your pattern pieces. Copy 16 times.
Cut 16 8” squares of
fabric—contrasting colors
and patterns. Iron fusible interfacing on
the back of each fabric
square.
Peel the paper off, leaving the glue on the fabric.
Pin the 16 patterns onto
the 16 fabric squares
Cut out all of your
puzzle pieces.
Remove paper pattern
pieces.
Organize all of your puzzle
pieces onto the 16 8”
squares of muslin.
Iron all of your blocks,
so that the pieces are
fused to the muslin.
On your sewing machine,
do a satin stitch around all
of the shapes. (With Stitch
and Tear underneath)
Arrange the 16 blocks of
your quilt top.
Sew borders to the
edges.
