Lanterns in the Breeze Free Quilt Pattern by Jean Katherine Smith
Lanterns in the Breeze is a 60-inch-square quilt designed by Jean Katherine Smith with the Breeze collection by Rosemarie Lavin Design. Its twelve-inch blocks are made in three fabric arrangements, with three of each arrangement used in the quilt center. Each block joins a rectangular middle section to pieced top and bottom sections. Four successive borders surround the block arrangement, combining narrow strips with wider prints before the quilt is bound.
