Heart Beats Quilt Pattern
Create a stunning optical illusion with this dynamic quilt pattern that's as fun to make as it is beautiful to display! The Heart Beats pattern features a mesmerizing checkerboard design with colorful heartbeat shapes that seem to pulse across the quilt surface.
Finished size: 92" x 92" (bed quilt)
Uses 2½" fabric strips (jelly rolls or strip packs)
Time-saving construction technique using strip sets
This clever design makes efficient use of pre-cut 2½" strips, allowing you to sew them into strip sets and then cut them down to create perfectly sized squares. It's a much faster approach than cutting and piecing hundreds of individual squares!
As the pattern notes suggest, "Rotate the blocks to change up the look!" This gives you endless possibilities to customize your quilt and make it uniquely yours. The heartbeat motif emerges through strategic color placement, creating visual interest and movement across the entire quilt.
Perfect for confident beginners and intermediate quilters looking for a striking project with streamlined construction methods.
