Ribbon Dance Quilt

Ribbon Dance Quilt Free Tutorial designed by Jenny of Missouri Quilt
Ribbon Dance Quilt


The Ribbon Dance Quilt, designed by Jenny Doan of the Missouri Star Quilt Company, is a captivating pattern that elegantly mimics the fluid movement of a dancer's ribbon. This quilt is constructed using half-square triangles (HSTs) made from two sets of 10-inch precut fabric squares, commonly known as layer cakes. In her tutorial, Jenny demonstrates a quick and easy method to create these HSTs, simplifying the assembly process. 

For this project, Jenny utilizes the "Garden Splendor" fabric collection by Wild Apple for Robert Kaufman, which infuses the quilt with vibrant, springtime colors and prints. The finished quilt measures approximately 78 inches by 86 inches, making it a generous size for various uses. Additionally, the tutorial includes a free downloadable PDF diagram to assist in the quilt's construction. 

Quilters of all skill levels will appreciate Jenny's clear instructions and the efficient techniques she shares in this tutorial. By following her guidance, you can create a stunning Ribbon Dance Quilt that showcases the beauty of your chosen fabrics and the graceful design of intertwining ribbons.
