You guys know I love designing and sewing with pre-cuts! Jelly Rolls are my fave, but Layer Cakes are my close second and you can use either with this pattern (or yardage!).
Tangled is one of my newest quilts/patterns I made with Forget-Me-Not. I've had this quilt messily sketched into my notebook for years, but for some reason didn't really spark much interest until I started this quilt. This block has many different names and variations, but mostly commonly I've seen it called a Celtic knot, and often a lovers knot, or slip knot.
Whenever I'm designing with pre-cuts, my main goal is to be able to make a Throw size quilt with just one Jelly Roll or Layer Cake. It makes my brain work and takes a little creativity to be able to get enough fabric and blocks out of the strips...I love the challenge.
For this quilt, there are a handful of scrappy blocks thrown in that allow this quilt to be made with less strips/squares. You can certainly leave them out if you have more fabric available, but I ended up loving the way they add a little interest to this design.
Knot and Thread Design did the quilting, it adds the perfect amount of texture and character that this quilt needs.
This pattern includes 5 sizes, and will probably be the pattern I use to make a Queen size quilt for my 15 year old. It has a more masculine feel and he likes geometric designs....but mostly it's easy and I like easy when it comes to making big quilts!
Tangled is in my shop now as a PDF here, or a Paper pattern here.
Forget-Me-Not isn't available yet if you would like to make this exact quilt, but as soon as it comes out I'll post where you can find it!

Allison - I just love your fabrics and quilt patterns. Just yesterday, as I sorted my patterns, I realized how many of yours I still have on my to-do list :)! Hearing this is a Layer Cake friendly quilt, I just might have to add it in also, as I love, love the design, and have a few Layer Cakes that are calling my name.
Allison
Haha at least you have all your patterns sorted....mine are a mess in my drawer I should go through and organize! Thank you for the support and sweet comment!

Such a lovely quilt, I made this one ten years ago, great scrap buster.
Allison
Yes it is a great scrap buster! I've seen similar ones made in all solids or two colors and that would be cute too.

I had so much fun making a queen size quilt with this pattern. The directions were easy to follow and my quilt is gorgeous. Thank you!
Michelle
Looking forward to making this pattern! Have you used different backgrounds? I was thinking about using 6 different “whites” for the background for a queen size.
Allison
That would be beautiful! I've seen others make it with various low volume backgrounds for a scrappy look and it was beautiful!
