Easy Broderie Perse Quilts

Three bouquet quilts and one jean jacket with the same applique design are hanging from a clothesline.

Grace Quilt Pattern

Broderie Perse means simply using the fabric's motif as your cutting guide.

These patterns generally include a template for the "vase". In this case, a mason jar is the vase for the GRACE bouquet quilts. The bouquets and bindings are made using the RIGHT side of the fabric; the mason jar is made using the REVERSE. This subtle use of the reverse gives a sense of the vase reflecting the blooms it's holding. Your bouquet is very much determined by the floral focus fabric you've chosen and how you arrange your bouquet - making the quilt uniquely yours!

Dragonfly quilt with a flowering vine is shown on clothesline in springtime.

Lilly Quilt Pattern

This wall quilt is made using a template for the dragonfly and broderie perse for the flowering vine above her. The dragonfly is made using the RIGHT side of the floral fabric; the REVERSE is used for the quilt binding and the blooms on the vine.

Rose bouquet applique quilt shown outside on clothesline.

Rose Quilt Pattern

This focus fabric has an incredible REVERSE! Notice the scrollwork in the vase? I used the RIGHT side of the focus fabric as the dark accent strip on the left - you can barely make out the scrollwork on the motif. Here you can also see the variety in the background fabrics.
