Generations - A Paper Doll, Quilt Block Series Celebrating Our Female Heritage

After several months of diligent pattern writing and proofing, our newest pattern booklet has become a reality! I am very proud to present the latest easypatchwork pattern - Generations - a Paper Doll, Quilt Block Series Celebrating Our Female Heritage.

The pattern booklet with more than 40, professionally printed, all-color pages consisting of

Full-size foundation paper patterns (FPP) for six 6" x 12" paper dolls
Mix and match options for all figures
Easy assembly instructions including pressing directions
One bonus figure, Catherine, and additional segments for other figures for more fun
Coloring image for each figure to color your own
Two quilt patterns - one wall and one table runner with material requirements, instructions, coloring sheet and additional colorway options

The pattern booklet weighs 180 grams and is printed on DIN A4 paper. The foundation patterns have been arranged on the pages to copy on standard Letter Size copy machines as well. Remember, you can always trace the FPP with translucent paper (~50g) with a good light source and a standard lead pencil.

This series contains Grace, Clara, Lizabeth, Ivy, Rose and Margaret. Pattern also includes the bonus figure, Catherine. The pattern booklet celebrates 200 years of female heritage celebrating our mothers, sister, aunts, grandmothers and other influential women from our past.

This pattern is packed full of everything you would wish for in a pattern! The dress of the paper dolls is kept simple and INTERCHANGEABLE.Yes, you can mix and match segment from each figure to create even more figures if you desire.

The pattern contains two patterns - one wall quilt measuring 46" x 48" wall quilt shown below. You can also use the 6" x 12" Figures to create you own patchwork quilts, table runners, pillowcases, wall hangings, and so much more.

When I created the pattern, I wanted to encircle the figures with stars representing individual states and countries. You can imagine the wall hanging as a European Union, French or American colors.
