2. Ribbon Candy Quilt
Bright colors and curvy shapes give this ribbon candy-shaped quilt a playful look. It would fit right into a child’s bedroom, but you don’t have to save it just for kids! You can also use it as wall decor. Head over to Megan Collins’ blog for pattern details.
3. Simple Yet Incredible Quilt Pattern
