Years ago, my best friend, Lyric, begged me to plant lavender. She was utterly convinced that lavender was this magical, whimsical herb that would instantly transform my property into a romantic French countryside. She had this entire nostalgic fantasy planned out: we would don oversized straw hats and flowy golden dresses, casually frolicking through the endless purple blooms at sunset like we were the main characters in a sweeping period drama.

What she failed to factor into this beautiful cottagecore dream was that a thriving lavender field is essentially a high-traffic international airport for every bee in a three-mile radius. It turns out that "frolicking" through magical, whimsical herbs actually consists of aggressive swatting, panic-flailing, and a dead sprint for the safety of the back porch to find an epi pen.

This nostalgic design captures the exact moment before reality set in. Featuring beautifully pieced, sweeping rows of deep, dimensional purple lavender, a perfectly draped golden-yellow sundress catching the light, and a stylish geometric straw hat, she is set against a stunning, pastel sunburst sky. She is just standing there, lost in the romance of it all, completely oblivious to the intense buzzing that is about to ruin the vibe.

Dive into your fabric stash to play with endless shades of violet, amethyst, and plum for the rolling fields, warm straw tans, buttery yellows, and a beautiful pastel gradient for the sunrise to bring this whimsical memory to life. Whether you are crafting a cheeky throw pillow for your own visionary best friend, a spectacular wall hanging for the bedroom, or just want an excuse to piece a beautifully dramatic landscape, this pattern lets you show off your precision piecing skills stitch by hilariously nostalgic stitch.

PATTERN FEATURES

Level: Confident Intermediate to Advanced. There are MANY tutorials available online to assist in learning the art of FPP. Don't let the number of pieces (or the sheer, unyielding reality of agricultural pests) scare you!

Technique: Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP).

Fabric Friendly: Uses distinct fabrics—perfect for playing with highly textured purple batiks for the endless rows of lavender or finding the perfect warm peach and pink solids for that gorgeous sunrise. Feel free to change the fabric colors to whatever you like best! This pattern is meant to be a guide, not a hard rule.

We are so thrilled you have chosen to bring this pattern to life! Whether you are a seasoned quilter or tackling Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP) for the very first time, these instructions are designed to guide you smoothly from your first cut to your beautiful finished quilt top. Take it one step at a time, trust the process, and enjoy the creative journey. You've got this!

Step 1: Print and Prepare

Check your printer settings: Print all Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP) patterns and fabric templates at 100% scale or "Actual Size." I suggest you use newsprint paper for the fpp prints for easier paper removal later.

Gather your supplies: Collect your fabrics, printed templates, rotary cutter, cutting mat, and pins or fabric glue so your workspace is fully prepped.

Step 2: Cut and Organize

Cut your pieces: Use the provided fabric templates and cutting guides to carefully cut out your fabrics. Important note: Ensure the fabric template lays upright on the fabric (the back of the template should be touching the top, or right side, of the fabric).

Label everything: Keep your cut pieces organized by labeling them with their corresponding letters or numbers to prevent any mix-ups during assembly.

Group by block: Sort your cut fabric pieces into small stacks corresponding to their specific blocks or FPP sections to streamline your sewing process.

Step 3: Piece the Blocks

Review the written directions: Read through the step-by-step text instructions for your specific blocks before you begin sewing.

Construct the FPP sections: Sew your fabric to the FPP templates, following the numbered sequences directly on the paper.

Trim to size: Carefully trim your completed blocks or sections along the designated seam allowance lines so they match the exact unfinished dimensions listed in the pattern.

Remove the paper: Once your FPP blocks are fully secured and trimmed, gently tear away the paper backing.

Step 4: Assemble the Quilt Top

Consult the assembly map: Use the visual layout diagram provided in the pattern to arrange your finished blocks in the correct orientation.

Sew into rows: Pin or fabric glue your blocks together, and sew them row by row.

Press your seams: Press your seams in the directions indicated by the pattern (or press them open) to ensure your block intersections nest beautifully.

Join the rows: Pin or fabric glue the completed rows together, carefully matching up your seams and points, and sew them into your final finished quilt top.
