Introducing the Jitterbug pattern, a captivating design that blends the timeless charm of the 1930s with modern quilting techniques. Crafted in partnership with Benartex and their Decades: Jazz Age collection by Mary Fons, this pattern captures the vibrant spirit of the swing club era.
Featuring blocks from the Arctic Star mixer series, the Jitterbug pattern offers a vintage-inspired aesthetic that will transport you to the glamorous speakeasies and dance halls of the past. With its versatile design, the pattern can be expanded to a king-size 118″ square by purchasing an additional Group H border (under the Buy Now button), allowing you to create a truly stunning heirloom-quality quilt.
To make the most of this pattern, we offer a range of helpful resources including specialized rulers, quilting designs, and other essential notions. If you’d like to make a second project, you can purchase a set of Replacement Papers to accompany your existing pattern by clicking the Buy Now button. Whether you’re an experienced quilter or just starting your journey, the Jitterbug pattern provides everything you need to bring your creative vision to life and capture the essence of the 1930s swing dancing craze.
