Love Patchwork & Quilting

Appliqué adventures

Those in need of a new project to liven up their downtime need look no further than Lucy Engels' new quilt pattern, Naive Melody. It's a symphony of abstract appliqué, brimming with on-trend shapes and endless opportunities to make it your own – you can even choose what type of appliqué you want to sew. Lucy created the quilt throughout 2020's lockdown, making 100 blocks over 100 days that join together in a 60in square design. She's kicking off a calming sewalong in September too!
