Jitterbug Quilt Tutorial

Learn to make this fun Jitterbug Quilt! The Jitterbug was one of the most popular dances of the swing era, but how did it get such a funny name? Turns out “jitterbug” is just a combo of two cute little words: jitter and bug. But put ‘em together and you’ve got a name worth remembering! Learn to make this Jitterbug Quilt with Jenny! This week we’re working on the Jitterbug Quilt. And, like it’s namesake, it’s based on two simple little elements: the 4-patch and the half-square triangle. Combine those quilting powerhouses with an extra dose of creativity, and you’ve got a quilt as swanky as the swingingest jitterbug on the dance floor! Click HERE to watch the tutorial! Diagram of the Jitterbug Quilt! Be sure to check back next Friday to see what else we come up with! Watch the Latest Tutorial from Missouri Star Quilt Co!
