Shortcut Quilt: Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel

We’re back for another Shortcut Quilt with this beginner-friendly, and impressive-looking quilt using the fabulous Fat Quarter precut! The FREE Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Pattern offers the instructions for a 60” x 77” quilt. Don’t worry, any quilter can get aboard this Ferris Wheel!

Our quilt features Northern Light by Annie Brady for Moda Fabrics. This collection and pattern tell such a story… a trip to the fair, and a ride in the Ferris wheel during wintertime. We can’t imagine a more perfect combination!    We also have a new video tutorial that will give you all the tips and tricks for whipping up this quilt in a snap!

This quilt can be made with some Fat Quarter precuts and background fabric. Fat Quarters were the first and most common specialty cut on the market. The term Fat Quarter refers to a quarter-yard of fabric cut into a rectangle at 18″ x 21″.

 You’ll want to grab your FREE Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Pattern and get ready to take a spin on this Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel. If you want to match ours, you’ll need the Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Quilt Kit and the matching Fat Quarter Ferris Wheel Backing Set to recreate this design.
