Gathered Over Time Free Quilt Pattern by Julie Hendricksen
Gathered Over Time sets small nine-patch blocks diagonally among cream-ground shirting squares. Julie Hendricksen’s design pairs dark prints with light shirtings, giving the pieced blocks a varied placement across the quilt. Setting triangles and corner triangles finish the edges of the diagonal arrangement. The quilt measures 57¼ by 70 inches, uses 4½-inch finished blocks, and includes instructions for either hand or machine quilting before binding.
