The story behind the Penguin Social Quilt

This adorable penguin quilt is a pleasure to make and anybody who loves penguins is going to love it. The quilt features two penguin designs. Stan (front-facing and rather social) and George (side-facing and definitely a rule follower). You can mix and match to your heart's desire, make a quilt full of your favorite, or make the quilt as shown. With the background being fully patchwork, it's super easy to change the size too.

About the Pattern

The pattern is for a throw size quilt measuring 62" x 68" and is entirely traditionally pieced. It includes one printable template you'll need for the angled seam on the penguin wings. The pattern provides yardages for individual blocks as well as the full quilt, and it's both fat quarter and jelly roll friendly (though you'll need more than a single jelly roll). Skill level is intermediate to advanced due to the angled seam technique on the wings.

One Pattern, Endless Options

A few fun ways you can make this pattern your own.

1

All Stans

Fill your quilt with front-facing penguins for a uniform look. There are 9 Stans in the cover quilt to encourage socializing.

2

Mixed flock

Combine Stan and George for a lively penguin party. George can face left or right. I encourage a variety.

3

Rainbow penguins

Make each penguin a different color and arrange them in ombre order on a low volume background for a rainbow waddle.

4

Mini or custom size

The fully patchwork background makes it super easy to change the size. Make a single penguin mini quilt, a few penguins, or the full quilt.
