Earth Day is on April 22nd every year!

“Planet Earth” a Free Paper/Template Pieced Quilt Pattern designed by TK Harrison for April 2021 Quilt Dash Members!“Planet Earth”
A Free Paper/Template Pieced Quilt Pattern designed by TK Harrison for April 2021 Quilt Dash Members!

This paper/template pieced quilt measures 72” square when finished.
The quilt blocks are 12” finished & 12 1/2” unfinished.
The Border & Binding are traditionally pieced.

Celebrating the Earth starts with our habits and our routines. Earth Day should be about us celebrating the life all around us, including these “Sun” and “Earth” Quilt Blocks! Use sustainable fabrics (or fabrics from your stash), celebrate the people and plants that make quilting possible, and let’s work together to create a better and more eco-friendly quilting world!

Even if you’ve never paper pieced before it’s really simple to paper piece this quilt! Or you could use the same paper piecing PDF instructions as templates to create this quilt! Since there are only two blocks in this quilt it’s just repeat sewing for each & every quilt block! Not to mention that there are only six different fabrics so you shouldn’t get too confused while making them!

The photos below are the entire Cinnamon-teen Chocolate Figs & Roses quilts made by the specific Resort Quilt Club Members whose names appear below their quilts!

I’ve been impressed with The Resort Club’s monthly quilt blocks! They’ve fulfilled all of my requirements. that a quilt guild/group are supposed to, in order to use my free patterns! They sent me monthly photos of their progress individually & as a group of quilters!

Thanks to The Resort Quilt Club for your due diligence in making my Cinnamon-teen Chocolate Figs & Roses BOM Quilt! And for staying in touch with me throughout the year! Is great to work with such a wonderful group of quilters! 🙂
