Mermaids - Quilt Pattern - Elizabeth Hartman

Mermaids by Elizabeth Hartman is a colourful underwater patchwork quilt pattern featuring sweet mermaids with flowing hair, bright tails, and little fish friends swimming alongside them. With plenty of opportunities to mix skin tones, hair colours, and favourite prints, each mermaid can have her own unique personality.

Choose from a 36" x 42" small quilt or a 66" x 78" large quilt. The mermaid blocks are Fat Eighth and Fat Quarter friendly, while the fish can be made with yardage or 10" precut squares. Everything is made using conventional patchwork techniques with no templates or paper piecing required.
