Back to School Quilt Pattern

Welcome to See Kate Sew! If you’re new here, sign up for my email newsletter for access to free patterns, tutorials and all the latest sewing news! Tour my sewing room HERE!

Happy September! It’s Back to School season and that means school supplies!! Introducing the Back to School Quilt Pattern!

Back to School Quilt pattern

The Back to School Quilt Pattern is the Pattern of the Month for September 2023! For the whole month you can sign up for Pattern of the Month and instantly download this pattern. If you’d rather just get the pattern (or if it’s after Sept 2023) you can get the pattern in my shop here.

Back to School Quilt Pattern

This adorable quilt will get you so excited for back to school! It features pencils and hearts with a fun border! All the education vibes included!

Back to School Quilt Pattern

There is nothing better than freshly sharpened pencils with unused erasers – so shiny and full of possibilities! I can almost smell the pencil shavings!

Teacher Gift Quilt Ideas

This quilt also makes a great teacher gift! Use the white space for classroom handprints or use fabric markers for student signatures to hold memories of a great year. This quilt can be made for a retiring teacher, too! What a special gift to give.

Back to School Quilt Pattern Details

  • Approximate Quilt Size: 59″ x 59″
  • Measurement based quilt with easy block instructions
  • Thorough step-by-step instructions
  • Instant Download PDF Pattern

Back to School Quilt Fabrics

This quilt has quintessential pencil colors plus black and white. I used all Riley Blake solids for this quilt. Here are suggested fabrics with links:

  • White Background: Confetti Cottons Vintage White (affiliate links)
  • Border and Pencil Tips: Riley Black
  • Pink Eraser: Rose
  • Light Brown Wood: Beach
  • Metal Band Grey: Riley Gray
  • Pencil Yellow: Riley Blake Riley Yellow
  • Hearts: Confetti Cottons Tomato

The back of the quilt is a wide back fabric (108″) called Bee Ginghams in Pebble. You need 2 yards of backing but you’ll have a lot left over. I like to get at least 3 yards so I can get 2 quilt backs out of it.
