Sonar Quilt Pattern by Prairie & Ocean

Please note: this listing is for the paper pattern. Acrylic templates for the Sonar templates can be found here.

Sonar was inspired by my own personal desire to overcome my hesitation towards sewing curves. The curved pieces in each block are intentionally large, making the sewing process more forgiving and less 'finicky' than sewing smaller curves. Each block has ample trimming room to correct for misadventures. The stripes bring a fun geometric element to the design that contrasts beautifully with the curves. For those who prefer avoiding strip-piecing, the pattern also includes instructions for using striped fabric, offering an easier but equally striking alternative.

Skills: accurate seam allowance, sewing curves*, strip-piecing long skinny pieces, cutting with 1/8" accuracy (example: cut a 2 5/8" piece)

*The curves are quite large, making them easier to sew for individuals with less experience sewing curved seams.
