This is a quilt that feels like home. It’s the Haven quilt – a new fat quarter quilt made in my upcoming Love Note fabric collection coming to shops in November 2021. I decided to highlight the beautiful greens, taupes, and blues this time around.

Haven Fat Quarter Quilt

Materials Needed

To make this quilt in Love Note fabric like I did, check in with your favorite local or online shop to request a kit reservation! Here are all the details of this quilt design + what you’ll need to make it:

Finished block: 21″ x 21″

Finished quilt: 75-1/2″ x 75-1/2″

• (9) fat quarters (SKUs 5150-14, 5150-17, 5151-12, 5151-17, 5152-21, 5154-12, 5154-14, 5155-14, 5156-12)
• 2 yards taupe accent fabric (SKU 5154-11)
• 2¾ yards white background fabric (SKU 5155-21)
• 2 yards sashing fabric (I used the background print again – SKU 5155-21)
• (1) fat quarter sashing block fabric (SKU 5156-17)
• ⅝ yard binding fabric (SKU 5152-21)
• 5 yards backing fabric (SKU 5156-17)
• 84″ x 84″ batting

Piecing & Quilting Details

• Pattern: Haven by Lella Boutique
• Fabric: Love Note by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics (arriving to shops November 2021)
• Pieced by: Vanessa Goertzen (me)
• Quilted by: Marion Bott. Pantograph is “Arbor” by Leisha Farnsworth.

Fun fact – the Rose in Bloom block of the month quilt layout is very similar to this block layout – and bigger! Both projects use lots of half-square triangles to form the same traditional-looking, star-shaped base. My biggest tip for both of these projects is to take the time to trim the half-square triangles. The ones in this Haven quilt are 2″ x 2″ unfinished so it does take a bit to get them all trimmed, but well worth it!

As always, the pattern is available in the shop as a PDF download or printed booklet.
