Charm square quilts are so fun and simple to make! Starting with a charm square makes the whole quilting process so much easier!
I love charm packs because they are quick to grab at the quilt shop and they typically have all of the prints from one fabric line! It’s an inexpensive way to get all the prints from one line!
I love precut fabrics since they take out the first cutting steps out of the process which can save so much time!
And starting with precut 5″ charm squares means your initial fabric blocks start out perfect – so you’ll have less room for error in your quilt and your final product will be crisper and nice!
In this post I’m sharing 3 easy, quick and beautiful ways to sew charm squares into a simple quilt! These charm square quilts can all be made in 3 hours or less which is a huge bonus!
