The Color Chaos Quilt Pattern by Meghan Buchanan of Then Came June.
The Color Chaos Pattern is my love song to Color and how it moves together and intertwines. The pattern plays with either a moving gradient or a bold solid design option. Included are fabric labels, a detailed coloring page, inspiration mock ups and a SQST trimming video tutorial!
This pattern requires intermediate quilting knowledge. The pattern assumes quilter has knowledge of accurate cutting, straight line piecing and can use consistent 1/4" seam allowances.
The pattern requires F8, FQ, 1/4 yard, 1/2 yard for the Color Explosion option depending on size and yardage for the Modern Solid design. Material requirements on second image.
Dioptra is comprised of a network of stars, their connections weaving together through their points, plotting a path across the sky. The pattern is named after the dioptra, an ancient Greek surveying device that allowed users to make large, complex measurements - say, determining the distance between Rome and Alexandria - based on the positions of the stars.
Dioptra’s stars include some unique angles, achieved through either foundation paper piecing or standard piecing with a bit of trimming (it’s up to you). Full instructions included for foundation paper piecing in case you’ve never tried it and would like to give it a try.
Patterns include a full color 32 page booklet filled with detailed instructions & diagrams; a foundation paper piecing template; a coloring sheet; and fabric placement worksheets, all inside a high quality card envelope. Please note that you will need to either copy or print additional paper piecing templates if you choose to paper piece (templates fit on US Letter / A4 paper).
Dioptra is an intermediate pattern, mostly because laying out and assembling the nested block design takes a healthy dose of organization.
