Little Cottontail doesn’t just make an appearance during spring! He and his friends make a wonderful everyday addition to a variety of quilted projects, especially for a nursery or child’s bedroom, jackets, bags, wall hangings and more.
Little Cottontail is one of three patterns in the Springtide Meadow series. Be sure to check out the other two foundation paper pieced block patterns from the series.
Bundle and save: Loving all three block patterns from the Springtide Meadow series: Little Cottontail, Flowering Tulip and Eggs Three Ways? We've put together a bundle with all the blocks at a lower price. You will receive one zip file with three individual PDF files for each of the block patterns.
Add-on: Add a little flare and style to your spring celebrations with a Springtide Meadow quilted basket designed by The Weekend Quilter. Fill it with eggs, treats and other surprises and when the season is over, it can be used as a storage bin! Or use it for springtime festivities for years to come.
The quilted basket is made with blocks from the Springtide Meadow series: Eggs Three Ways, Flowering Tulip and Little Cottontail. The instructions in the add-on pattern focus solely on creating the basket using completed blocks from the Springtide Meadow series. Four different layouts are included in this basket pattern, to help create variation if you choose to create more than one basket, and/or if you prefer one layout more than the others. The three Springtide Meadow block patterns are separate from the basket pattern. Refer to the block requirement table in the product listing photos and use the separate block patterns to make the necessary number of Eggs Three Ways, Flowering Tulip or Little Cottontail blocks for the basket of your choosing.
Prior knowledge of machine piecing and FPP is required. For more information on how, there is a tutorial on The Weekend Quilter's blog and for more visual support, check out Angela Walter's paper piecing tutorial on YouTube.
