Hey everyone! We are so excited to be sharing our second recipe with you here on Moda Bake Shop. We have put together Strawberry Marmalade (72 x 84 inches) using Brannock and Patek’s new line, Together.
This pattern uses 2 precuts–a jelly roll and a charm pack…so it is double the fun! Check it out below…then stop on over at our blog and say hi!
If you are interested in a kit of Strawberry Marmalade using the Together fabrics go to our shoppe below…
happy quilting!

1 jelly roll Together by Brannock and Patek
1 charm pack Together by Brannock and Patek
2 7/8 yards background print from Together by Brannock and Patek
4 1/2 yard backing
78 x 90 inches batting
Cut the following from the jelly roll:
42–2 1/2 x 5 inch rectangles
84–2 1/2 x 7 inch rectangles
42–2 1/2 x 9 inch rectangles
It works best to cut from each strip 1–5 inch, 2–7 inch, and 1–9 inch. Then cut remaining rectangles from leftovers of each strip…make sure to cut from each strip to achieve a good mix of prints.
Cut the following from the background:
8–9 inch strips into 30–9 inch squares and 2–7 inch squares (cut the 7 inch squares in half diagonally once…these are the corners)
Cut the following from the background:
2–14 inch strips into 6–14 inch squares (cut each 14 inch square in half diagonally twice…these are the setting triangles)
Layout block as follows using:
1 charm square
1–2 1/2 x 5 inch rectangle
2–2 1/2 x 7 inch rectangles
1–2 1/2 x 9 inch rectangle
Piece the 5 inch rectangle first. Press.
Piece the 7 inch rectangle second. Press.
Piece 2nd 7 inch rectangle. Press.
Piece the 9 inch rectangle last. Press.
Repeat for 42 blocks.
Layout blocks as follows…6 across and 7 down…place the setting squares, setting triangles, and corner triangles. Piece diagonal rows.
Once quilt is pieced; layer with batting and backing and quilt as desired.
I quilted it with a variegated green thread by Signature in a free style overlapping meander.
Piece together all remaining jelly roll strips and bind as desired. We stitched down the binding by machine.
1 perfect-for-autumn Strawberry Marmalade quilt measuring 72 x 80 inches.
