DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Squared Away proves that a simple patchwork design can be absolutely irresistible when the fabrics tell the story.
The overall composition is built from a cheerful arrangement of squares, allowing the different prints of the Friendly Farmstead collection to mingle naturally across the table topper. Instead of relying on complicated piecing, the design lets color, pattern and personality create the visual interest. A soft yellow border surrounds the patchwork, carrying into the binding and distinctive corner loops for a beautifully coordinated finish.
And then there are the fabrics.
Across the patchwork you'll discover a little country world filled with cows, fluffy sheep, chickens, roosters, birdhouses, flowers and tiny farm-inspired details. Some squares are playful and pictorial, while others feature daisies, delicate florals, swirls and geometric patterns. Together, they create the look of a lovingly collected patchwork rather than a perfectly matched set of identical prints.
The colors make the design especially inviting.
Deep navy and denim blues give the project richness, while soft mint and aqua greens bring a fresh country feel. Buttery yellow and creamy ivory brighten the palette, and the natural browns, whites and golden accents of the farm animals add warmth.
It's easy to imagine this one in a welcoming farmhouse kitchen.
Morning sunlight is coming through the windows. Somewhere beyond the garden, chickens are scratching around the yard while cows graze in the pasture. Daisies grow along the fence, a bird investigates its little house, and the everyday rhythm of country life carries on without hurry.
Inside, something warm has just come from the oven.
And Squared Away is waiting on the table.
That's where this project becomes more than a pretty piece of patchwork. With the appropriate thermal batting, it can become a useful part of the kitchen—a handmade place for setting down a warm casserole or serving dish while adding color and personality to the table.
The 5 Karat bundle of precut charm squares makes the project especially enjoyable. Much of the color coordination and square cutting has already been done for you, while the included border, binding and backing fabrics bring the entire project together.
You'll only need to add the appropriate thermal batting before you're ready to create your own little piece of Friendly Farmstead.
And when it isn't protecting the table beneath a favorite dish, it's pretty enough to leave out simply because it makes the room feel a little more like home.
