Flower Power: Crafting Stunning Floor Cushions with 8 Wedge Designs Using Intelliquilter

Unlock Your Creativity with Step-by-Step Guidance to Create Beautiful, Unique wedge patterns 

Welcome to our course on crafting your very own floor cushion!

In this course, you'll learn how to use the Intelliquilter system tools to design and create beautiful wedge shapes that come together to form a stunning flower-shaped cushion.  

I recently made these floor cushions for my granddaughters, and it was a delightful experience. Choosing fabrics that matched their bedrooms and interests made each cushion unique and personal. One granddaughter loves Disney princesses, while the other has an Australian-themed room. The best part? I got to clear out my extensive collection of leftover batting scraps. All types of batting and fabric remnants went into filling these cozy cushions.

What You'll Learn:

  • How we create the basic wedge shape using different tools on our Intelliquilter. This is required to then build designs inside of and audition your work. 
  • Using the echo tool to build continuous, different geometric designs
  • Using the path tool to build a sweet multi daisy motif to fit
  • Using Line pattern to create a motif
  • Modifying existing patterns to suit the wedge shape
  • Creating a simple curved piano key pattern for the side panels
  • Practical Exercises: Participate in guided exercises that reinforce theoretical knowledge, allowing you to practice and refine your skills in real-time. 
  • Creative Confidence: Build the confidence to experiment and innovate with wedge patterns, transforming your quilting projects into unique works of art.
