During Covid I was doing a lot of sewing and buying a lot of fabric... After I got too much fabric (yes there's such a thing) I started to buy patterns that I really like, and I got too many of those.... But one thing I discovered is that there's a lot of free patterns and free BOMs online. Here are only a few of the three pattern sites:
Fat Quarter Shop - which has both free patterns and many many free BOMs that I've personally made and love.
Bear Creek Quilting Company which has free patterns from fabric places and have uplinked the MODA Blockheads on their site. On their blog they have listing of BOMs and each month they posted some really great patterns free that came out that month.
National Quilting Circle has a number of them from Fabric Companies as well.
Jordan Fabrics - always my favorite with free videos to learn how to do these free patterns as well. The videos are very clear and easy to understand.
Robert Kauffman - one of the greats....
Moda Fabrics that has BOMs, some fatheads (a group of blocks you put together for a quilt - a real learning experience), the moda bake shop that has a view of these free quilts, and so much more for you. One of my go to places for free patterns and most of my UFOs come from here because I join too many of them!!
Tilda's world which is a British quilter with such cute quilts. Really stunning and most of them are holiday styles. It's a MUST take a look site.
Missouri Star Quilt Company doesn't have the printouts of free patterns but it really has a lot of videos that show you exactly what to cut, how much material you need to buy, and how to make such fun, easy quilts. This is a link to their video channel that has the tutorials all there. Check out out.
Coriander Quilts always has one or two free patterns on it that are divine... Check out this months. It's on my list now.... So cute for September, October and November on the wall or on the couch.
Another of my favorites is American Patchwork and Quilting which every month has one or two free patterns with each of their magazines. Those really add up and now their online. Check out this link to many fabulous ones. They're categorized , see how below;
Just get It Done Quilts is based out of Ontario, with a blog worth reading. They have stash busters, free patterns and more. Check out the freebies on top for more.....
Love Crafts has a number of patterns from all over, and more than just quilts. You can do a search by the maker of the pattern, or what size quilt, or what item (like hand crafts stuff). Take a look at their great search engine.
And if a free pattern is not your thing, how about a free block:
- Moda Blockheads Round 2 can be found here, all of the blocks from Round 3 can be found here, all of the blocks from Round 4 can be found here.
- Another great spot to find blocks is Quilter’s Cache. This website has so many quilt blocks!
- Generations Quilt Block patterns is another spot for free quilt block patterns in various sizes.
- Consider blocks from other quilt alongs. The Sewcialites quilt alongs have a wonderful backlog of great quilt blocks. These blocks are available in 3″, 6″ or 9″ sizes.
- Quilting Daily has 150 blocks with images of each one.
