Count On It Quilt Pattern Book by Nancy Halvorsen of Art to Heart

Description

Count On It is a celebration and countdown collection of small applique projects, with separate numbers and letters you can mix and match. Count the days of the month, count down to a favorite holiday, or display a birthday quilt with someone’s age, then add a Happy Birthday Garland with interchangeable names.

What the Book Includes

This listing is for the printed softcover pattern book, not a kit or a finished quilt. Inside are the projects with cutting and assembly instructions and color photos; the applique patterns download as printable files for use with fusible applique sheets. Fabric, batting, backing, and notions are not included.

What You Can Make

• Monthly quilts for January through December
• Birthday Quilts that display an age, and Countdown Quilts for Christmas, Easter, and Halloween
• A Happy Birthday Garland with interchangeable names
• Celebrate pot stake banners
• A full set of numbers and a small alphabet to personalize any project

What You’ll Need

Projects combine simple patchwork with fusible applique, and the applique patterns download as printable files for use with fusible applique sheets. No special rulers are required beyond a rotary cutter, mat, and ruler. Fabric, batting, and backing are purchased separately.

Perfect For

• Birthday and holiday countdowns and decorating
• Quilters who like small, quick, personalized projects
• Keepsake birthday gifts with names and ages
• Confident beginners comfortable with fusible applique

Why You’ll Love This Book

Count On It is really a system: small monthly and holiday quilts plus a set of numbers and letters that let you count days, count down to a holiday, or spell out a name. Make a Birthday Quilt that shows an age, a garland personalized with a child’s name, or a countdown to Christmas, and reuse the same pieces all year.

The projects are small and quick, which makes them satisfying gifts, and the interchangeable numbers and letters mean one book stretches across every birthday and holiday on the calendar.
