Misty Mountains | A Quilt Pattern

The second Patchwork & Poodles pattern is officially live! I’m very excited to introduce you to the Misty Mountains Quilt. This quilt pattern uses big cuts of fabric and bold geometric piecing for maximum effect. You can purchase the pattern here.

Misty Mountains quilt comes in 3 sizes – wall hanging (24″), baby (36″) and throw (60″). Although written as a square pattern, it comes with bonus instructions for turning it into a rectangular quilt. Beginner friendly, with LOTS of easy-to-follow diagrams, and best of all, it is fast! All my testers remarked how rapidly this quilt came together. Some days, you just need a quick win, you know?

Misty Mountains was inspired by mountain ranges and how the mountains further away will look lighter in color than the nearer ones due to the cloud cover and snow. Therefore it works well with 6 shades of the same color family.

However, feel free to go bold and modern too! Mixing in pops of color really makes the Misty Mountains pattern shine!

I’ve made 4 versions so far, let’s break down their colors…

Misty Mountains Throw | Cover Quilt

The first one up is my pattern cover quilt, a throw size Misty Mountains made with the brand new Cotton + Steel basics. I love the new basics, they add just enough texture and interest while still reading close to a solid.

Color 1: Go Dot Go Indigo
Color 2: Stitch and Repeat Avocado
Color 3: Clover and Over Narwhal
Color 4: Stitch and Repeat Teal
Color 5: Go Dot Go Sidewalk Chalk
Color 6: Clover and Over Pocket
Background: Freckles Sandcastle
Binding: Navy Solid
Backing: Kinoko Yama in Lemon from the Mori No Tomodachi collection by Cotton + Steel
