Free Quilt Patterns - Hula Twist Quilt Pattern Quilt Pattern
Hula Twist is a full size patchwork quilt that's made from two different quilt blocks, the Eccentric Star (top row, first on left) and Friendship Star (top row, second from left). Both quilt blocks give the design a bit of spin. The quilt is easy to assemble, making the pattern a perfect choice for beginning quilters.
Quick piecing techniques are used to create all components that are used in this quilt pattern.
- A mottled "seafoam" colored fabric sits behind purple print half square triangle units used in the Friendship Star quilt blocks. It is repeated in the block's center.
- A mostly white fabric (with a little gray) provides the background for the Eccentric Star block. A multicolor fabric in shades of green with a touch of purple is used for the twisted "spokes," and the same purple is used for star tips is used at the block's center.
