Vinca Blossom offers four different quilt sizes, plus you can make a table runner by using the baby size instructions. This pattern is precut friendly and scrap friendly, and it’s easy enough for a confident beginner to make. If you’re using yardage, the strip piecing makes it a fast project, too! The Vinca Blossom Quilt checks all the boxes for a fun, versatile and easy pattern to make.

The Vinca Blossom quilt pattern can be used for a great table runner!  Made and designed by Julie Cefalu @ The Crafty Quilter.

Vinca Blossom gets its name from the Vinca flower which has four petals that end in a point. Once I had designed the pattern, I knew what the name had to be. The quilt block measures 12 1/2″ square (unfinished) and it’s so sweet – even on its own.

Vinca Blossom pattern testers

I am so thankful for the ladies that offered to test my pattern. They were very responsive and offered some great feedback that helped make this a very user-friendly and accurate pattern. Enjoy their beautiful quilts!

Debbie made the throw size and quilted it herself. It’s just beautiful and looks like a fresh bunch of Vinca flowers. She can be found on Instagram @debbies.whimsies

Great pattern!  It’s very well written and easy to follow. I made the throw size with leftover Abby Rose charm packs and fat quarters.  I love that your pattern can be used with yardage, any type of pre-cut or even scraps. 

This is a great pattern for beginners and experienced quilters alike.   The design is very versatile. Despite the name, it’s not overly floral in appearance so depending on fabric used it would be suitable for gifting to anyone.

Debra made the twin size using four charm packs for variety (but three would have been enough). It’s quite charming and lovely! She can be found @debrasander on Instagram.

The pattern is wonderfully written. I found the strip piecing in the assembly instructions to be perfect. For the most part, the pattern is awesome and I can see it in many different fabrics.

I used the Stripology ruler by GE Designs for Creative Grids which was a timesaver. I also used the seam tape (from Cluck Cluck Sew) to speed up piecing the folded corners and a corner trimmer by Doug Leko. Overall lovely design.

Isabella made the throw size using a scrappy mix of bright colors. This is so happy looking! She can be found @all.about.mycraft on Instagram.

Your pattern is fabulous! I made a throw size and I love it!

I made a scrappy one and your Bonus scrap instructions are great. Really a plus because you write down exactly the process I make every single time to convert a quilt pattern into a scrappy one.

Cheryl really enjoyed making the throw sized quilt (and it turned out so pretty). She used yardage and took advantage of the quick strip-piecing methods given in the pattern. You can find Cheryl @chersmith22 on Instagram.

I can’t thank these pattern testers enough for their lovely work, their time and diligence, and their thoughtful feedback on the pattern. They really showed how versatile and beautiful Vinca Blossom can be! I also had a great technical editor, Lisa from Mountain View Quilts, who made sure all of the math was correct (among many other things). Thanks to all of you!

More Vinca Blossom info

Since you made it this far, I’m going to fess up and tell you that I haven’t gotten my own cover sample made for this pattern. I made a table runner and I made a square Christmas version last year, but I’m woefully behind schedule here. But, it’s next on my list as soon as I get my next pattern release done (which is next week)!

I also want you to know that I have a free tutorial for the Vinca block itself. It’s the genesis of this pattern and you can see how the block is made. I had many requests for a full pattern with different size options, so I have finally delivered. The pattern includes full color diagrams with pressing arrows, fabric requirements, and a coloring page plus bonus scrap instructions.
