Our quilting connections here on Modern Prairie have proven to be very genuine and heartfelt. Thus, the name of our next quilting course…. “Heartfelt Adventures!”

Our class instructor, and Trusted Prairian, Tiffany, designed this pattern in 2020 to showcase things close to her heart. We love how these designs were created long before Modern Prairie, but seem to capture exactly what we love as a community. 

The names of the blocks exemplify some of our favorite things from the Prairie. Such as… “Tea Time”, “Meet Me at the Book Club”, “Letters From Home”, “Gardening Friends” among others. 

The fun appliqué designs also exhibit some of our favorite heartfelt treasures, and represent many of our circles within Modern Prairie. The appliqués can be adapted to your own personality as you journey on this adventure with us, and create a quilt that is close to your heart. 

For those of you who have learned to make “nine-patches”, and “fat quarter fumbled” your way through the crazy quilt - this is the next step in your quilting journey!  You will learn half-square triangles, pinwheel triangles, blocks on point, and many more techniques.  Any one of the 9 blocks in this quilt could be a complete quilt pattern on its own. You are receiving not only one, but 9 different block techniques and the fabrics necessary to complete the entire quilt.

• Fabric for each of the 9 Heartfelt blocks from “A Walk on the Prairie” collection (each can be it's own quilt).  A total of 10.5 Yards of fabric.
