Jubilant Song Quilt Pattern

6/2/2019

10 Comments

 
This group of patterns for Splendid needed a quilt with some larger sections to show off the poinsettias and cardinals without cutting them up to much. I liked the idea of vertical columns that showed a few of the prints with the pointsettias as the main center.

To balance out the large panels, I liked adding smaller pieced blocks, arranged into elegant and lacy compositions, to form as a decorative top and bottom to the columns. Thin sashing, like window edges, run the length of the quilt. The result is a group of three columns, reminiscent of church windows, with light flooding through the stained glass images. They seem grand and ceremonial and festive for a celebration.

Many thanks to The Felted Pear (Susan!) for helping me with this and making those flying geese and HST and assembling the ends!

Nature celebrates Christmas with Splendid. I feel like I can hear the jubilant song of either the church choir or the choir of birds out in the trees. This quilt pattern in mocked up into three color versions in the pattern- cream, red, and charcoal. Although this is shown with Christmas fabrics, I think it would be striking with other large scale prints, like the William Morris fabrics that Moda produces with rich jewel tones.

There are four new patterns I'm sewing for Christmas quilts with Splendid. Check out this and the others: Joy and Delight, Cardinal's Christmas Wreath, and Showering Stars Table Runner and Pillows at my shopify shop.

Robin, this is a beautiful design! Simple enough to show off the fabric and intricate enough to show off piecing skills.

On page 3 under “Make small flying geese” the instructions state to gather (2) 2-3/4” background squares & the (8) 1-5/8” Fabric F squares. However on the previous page 2 of the instructions to cut the background fabrics, there is no 2-3/4” squares listed to cut either in the diagram or list. What size are these background squares to be? Something that was already cut? Or were they just left off the cutting instructions? I could not locate any pattern corrections anywhere on a website. Thank you.

Hi Dr. S,
Unfortunately there is an error on Jubilant Song. On page 2 - cutting for Fabric F and Background have been reversed for the small flying geese units.
The (8) 1 5/8” x 1 5/8” of background should be cut from Fabric F.
The (2) 2 3/4” x 2 3/4” of Fabric F should be cut from Background.

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. It has been updated on the errata page as well and I'll send out a correction sheet with patterns. Thank you for your comment and I'm sorry I was not able to address it till now.

There are numerous mistakes in this pattern. In addition to the mistake pointed out above, when you get to doing the subcuts under Make Little Squares Blocks it tells you to sew together 25 1/2” strips. In the cutting instructions there are 25” strips but not 25 1/2”. It also tells you to sew 10 1/2” strips together; again there are no 10 1/2” strips, only 10” strips.

Hi Andrea,
You are correct that it is a mistake in the cutting not to have you include the extra half inch. The 1/2" is only to give you an extra amount to cut off if needed for the last block in your subcutting so the amount actually NEEDED is the 10" and 25" strip. I will go back and add the extra 1/2 to the cutting directions to give that additional amount for clean trimming.

I appreciate you letting me know.
Thank you,
Robin
