quiltology...

The design concept behind our little Gum Drops is simple—we married lots of color with lots of dots to create a fun and whimsical quilt that’s perfect for babies and small children.

We just love contemporary scrappiness so we used lots of Kaffe Fassett prints along with some of Michael Miller’s dumb dots and then added a splash of Jennifer Sampou’s eclectic Beat fabrics.

Many of these fabrics are out of print now—so when these kits are gone—they’re gone forever!

Our Quiltology kit includes 16 fat quarters and the original Blue Underground Studios pattern. 16 fat quarters = 4 yards of fabric, and this pattern cuts quite efficiently, so it will produce a decent size throw quilt. Need a baby quilt? How about two of them? One of our students told us she just got two small baby quilts out of this one kit—and she claims to have some fabric leftover! (Don’t worry—she’s gifting these to friends who live in two different states so they won’t know their quilt isn’t an original! And we won’t tell….)

Rating: super easy—perfect for beginners—or anyone else looking for a quick project.

Gum Drops kit (16 fat quarters & pattern) = $60

Got a big stash of fabric at home and only want the pattern?  No problem—buy the pattern separately for $9.50.
