    • Description

    Cross Traffic is perfect for quilters who love crisp lines and bold intersections. This design features striking directional movement that mimics the dynamic flow of crossing paths — a great way to build confidence with paper piecing while creating an eye-catching piece. A good pattern for those with a little experience to do a small paper-pieced wall hanging, but it’s also fun for intermediate-level quilters who enjoy precise piecing and modern geometry.

    Pat's 14-page pattern comes complete with all templates, tips on how to speed up assembly, yardage and cutting charts, and labelling, as well as step-by-step instructions.

    About Pat's paper pieced patterns

    Pat has a more efficient way of paper piecing that provides more accuracy and ease. All her patterns are symmetrical so that once you have completed all the blocks in the design you can flip them 180 degrees from the way she made them and form a different and still interesting quilt. 

    If you are new to paper piecing, you’ll be surprised at the complex-looking quilt you’ve made that has actually been easy. If you have made this kind of quilt before, you will find an ease of production that you may not have experienced.
