Let’s be honest: quilting is expensive. Whether you’re spending money or time, sometimes it seems like you can pour everything into your latest quilt, only to kiss it goodbye when you give it away to its intended recipient. But as wonderful as the feeling of making your very last snip on a quilt can be, sometimes you just want to create something that doesn’t cost you a million dollars in fabric or a whole weekend in time.
Well, we here at FaveQuilts believe that thrifty does not have to mean “cheap.” There’s no reason why you can’t make beautiful, high-quality quilts without breaking the bank and without missing dinner. So, with no further ado, we present 20 patterns that are perfect for quilters on a budget and on a schedule.
