Elizabeth Hartman – Florence Flamingo

(This is for a paper, hardcopy format of the pattern, which will be mailed to you. It is not for a .pdf download.) Elizabeth Hartman’s “Florence Flamingo” Quilt Florence Flamingo includes two quilt sizes, both featuring large-scale flamingo blocks with adorable knobby knees. The blocks are pieced using conventional patchwork techniques. No paper piecing! The blocks are made with 2-1/2 fabric strips, making it perfect for using precut rolls or scraps. The pattern also includes a complete list of the cut pieces need to make a single block, making it easy to make single blocks for other projects. 2 quilt sizes: 45×45″ or 59 x79″ FABRIC GUIDELINES This pattern is compatible with 2.5″ precut strips. Yardages are based on fabric at least 42″ wide. You will also need a fabric marking tool and a 5.5″ x 8.5″ piece of paper or template plastic to make a cutting guide for the flamingo’s bent leg. 6 colorful fabric strips will be used to make each flamingo. For best results, the strips used for each flamingo should be color coordinated and/or arranged by value from light to dark. The large quilt on the cover was made using a Roll-Up (package of precut 2.5″ strips) of Elizabeth Hartman’s Pond print fabric collection for Robert Kaufman fabrics and a Roll-Up of Pond Kona Cotton Coordinates. The background is Robert Kaufman’s Manchester Cotton in Taupe. Please refer to the listing images for fabric requirements and quilt sizes.
