Weekend 3-Yard Quilts from Fabric Cafe, by Donna Robertson and Fran Morgan, is a 20-page, full-color pattern book with eight new designs built around the popular 3-yard quilt method. Each quilt is designed to be finished in a weekend, with fast patterns and easy-to-follow instructions.
The 3-yard approach keeps planning simple, since these quilts are typically built from three coordinating fabrics. It's a great way to show off a large-scale print you love, like the bold florals and blues on the cover quilts, without cutting it into tiny pieces. The book covers lap, twin, and queen/king sizes, and every design includes enlargement instructions for queen/king.
It's a smart pick for newer quilters who want a quick, confidence-building finish, and for experienced quilters who need a fast gift, a charity quilt, or a retreat project. Pull three yards from your stash or shop our fabric wall for a coordinating trio, and you'll be ready to start cutting on Friday night.
