Charm Pack Cartwheel Quilt
I am taking part in Fat Quarter Shop’s Shortcut Quilt Series. Several of us quilters picked out fabrics and received them to create a Charm Pack Cartwheel quilt that will be shown on Fat Quarter Shop’s blog.
Charm Pack Cartwheel Quilt Kit
I used two charm packs of Hometown Holiday by Lori Holt, Hometown Holiday Sea Glass yardage and Bella Solid White Bleached yardage.
If you prefer a kit, take a look at the Charm Pack Cartwheel quilt kit featuring Shine by Sweetwater.
Quilt Blocks On Design Wall
I am using a portable design wall that isn’t quite wide enough but it works for now. I really miss my sliding design wall and we have talked about making one again.
Hobbs Tuscany Collection Cotton Wool Batting
For the first time, I used Hobbs Tuscany Collection Cotton Wool batting and I really like the way the quilt feels! I’ll be using this batting again.
Vintage Singer
I used my vintage 15-91 Singer sewing machine to piece and quilt my quilt. I love having a view outside while I am quilting.
Closeup of Quilt
It is always fun to share a closeup of the beautiful fabrics in the quilt.
Charm Pack Cartwheel Free Pattern
The Fat Quarter Shop always shares many quilt patterns and the Charm Pack Cartwheel quilt pattern is available for free!
Rusty approves of the quilt!
Rusty has become so good at getting his picture taken. I didn’t even have a chance to ask him to jump up, he did it on his own!
I want to thank Fat Quarter Shop for the beautiful fabrics for this quilt and be sure and visit the Jolly Jabber blog to see what fabrics others used.

About Connie
Hi, I’m Connie Kresin Campbell, the quilter, writer, and photographer behind Freemotion By the River. I enjoy inspiring others with my quilt tutorials and patterns. You’ll also see my sweet adopted dogs from time to time.

I think it is amazing how things appear so different. When I first saw the pattern with the large blue snowball, (I thought it was taking away from the pin wheels) I wasn’t really a fan but then when it was quilted with a border the same color, it made the snowball disappear and become the background. Then the pinwheels popped. LOVE it.
Love the cartwheel quilt! I love seeing Rusty so happy! You have done wonders for him! 🥰♥️
Love the pinwheels and the colors in your quilt. Great job and also Great job to Rusty with his big smile. I have never made a quilt, but this winter I ‘m going to try. I’m going to download the pattern.
Love this pattern. Looks like a good one. I also like the quilting!
Love the pattern and love the fabrics you chose! I’m saving this one to make one day.
Another beautiful quilt! I watched the tutorial and it looks like it would be fun to make. I am so amazed that you are able to quilt a quilt of this size on your vintage machine.
Thanks Kate, I actually did a King size quilt on it…..once. That was a workout! Having tables to the left and behind really helps.
That’s beautiful, Connie. Great design! I love the fabrics that you used in it. I’m sure Rusty loves his job as quilt model. 😉
Thanks Mary, Rusty is really turning in to a model!
Beautiful quilt. Love the colors. Rusty is giving a very big smile, so he must like it also. He’s so smart.
I meant to also tell you how beautiful your quilting is. I’m trying to learn some free motion and ruler work. I have done Edge to Edge with Embroidery machine. I’m not near as coordinated as you are with free motion. I so admire seeing your quilting skills.
Thanks Beverly, I have been doing it for a long time, ruler work looks hard to me.
Oh Rusty – you are a STAR! Love the new quilt, lots of color and motion!
Thanks for the video. Always good to see it firsthand. Quilting weather ahead – rain, cool temps, my favorite!!!!!
Beautiful quilt, and yes Rusty models very well.
hey Connie….I love the cartwheel pattern and may try it with some of my “stash charm packs!! I may be technically challenged, but was unable to see examples of this quilt on the “jolly jabber” link. Can you help point me in the right direction?
I was able to download the pattern, so I am good there. thanks!

I don’t think their post is up yet.
Beautiful quilt! Love your choice of colors. And Rusty? What can I say? He is adorable!!
Connie, I love how Rusty looks like he has a great big smile on his cute little face. I really like this pattern and have some charm packs that will work beautifully with it. Thank you.🇨🇦
Thanks for sharing your very pretty quilt! Your background choice really makes the pinwheels pop! I just printed the free pattern.
Rusty is saying, “Look at my new quilt!” 🙂
Nice work Connie, you picked really pretty fabrics for this quilt.
My thoughts exactly. Loving the colors and the quilting is amazing. Great job Connie! Great job Rusty!
