Meet Whirling—a striking quilt full of movement and contrast! Two shades of orange create a subtle secondary pattern, while half-square triangles bring energy and flow. Crisp white and green accents keep it fresh, but this design works beautifully in any colour combination—even scrappy! Whether you carefully plan your palette or mix and match from your stash, Whirling is a fun, beginner-friendly project that comes together block by block.
Pattern details
- Lap quilt size: 50” x 60”
- Quilt block size: 10” x 10”

This pattern includes a game-changing technique for making half-square triangles (HSTs) in bulk—meaning you’ll make all the HSTs for each block at once! No tedious trimming or piecing one at a time—just quick, efficient sewing.
