Hello Quilty Friends!
Happy Thursday to you!
I can tell summer is coming fast, can’t you?
My days are getting busier and busier and I have less and less time to spend quality time with my sewing machine and I don’t even have kids at home. What about those of you who do? College kids are graduating. Younger kids will be off for summer vacation soon. And so on and so on. . .until school starts up again in August and September. So what’s a quilter supposed to do???
Or maybe you’re a new quilter just learning how to sew a 1/4″ seam and how to safely use a rotary cutter? Sometimes it’s hard to find patterns that match your developing skills.
Or maybe you want to teach someone how to quilt? How do you pick out a project that will be satisfying but doable? Something fun and not boring?
I’m glad you stopped right here at the VRD blog because I’m going to show you a curated collection of Rose Card quilt patterns perfect for the beginning quilter as well as the super busy person who also happens to be a quilter (yep, I mean YOU).
I haven’t created a curated list of Rose Cards for a while so I thought it would be fun to share some of the fastest, most fun, and satisfying projects in our Villa Rosa Designs Rose Card collection.
Here’s my criteria for this curated list:
- Only squares and/or rectangles
- Simple design with easy execution
- No more than 2 different simple blocks per project
- No more than 5 pieces in a single block
- No sashing
- No borders
Here goes!
It was really hard to choose the above Rose Card patterns even with such specific criteria because VRD has so many pattern that are fast and fun. I really had to make some hard decisions based on difficulty because I wanted to keep the patterns beginner-friendly.
I hope you enjoyed this list — some are oldies but goodies while others are fresh of the press, so to speak. Here’s hoping you maybe found a few new-to-you Rose Card patterns to add to your own growing collection of cards. Pick out a couple patterns and make plans to work on them over the summer. You might just be surprised at how much you can get done when you use one of these VRD Rose Card patterns.
Take care and just keep quilting….
Until next week —
Sew. Laugh. Repeat.
Always,
Tricia @VRD

This is a comprehensive list and I have made many of these patterns. Gilda is my favorite and I’ve made Kalinda more than once. I am not deleting this list as there are a few I have to buy and try. Thanks, Tricia
