New Pattern: Statue of Liberty in Distress

Title: Statue of Liberty in Distress

Designer: ThePluckyStitch

Techniques: Foundation Paper Piecing

Did you know that the desire to offer a service to color my own FPP quilt patterns was the mojo that motivated me to create QuiltInk? 🤔

Back in 2018, I started designing quilt patterns, and when I looked for a way to offer digital coloring services, I couldn’t find any. So, I decided to create QuiltInk! Now, I can’t tell you how thrilled I am that QuiltInk is hosting Carrie Scout’s FPP patterns from The Plucky Stitch, including this incredible Statue of Liberty in Distress design!

Do you know Carrie Scout? ✂️

Carrie is based in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, and she’s a polyglot, mother, international teacher, returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Zambia), Salesforce Administrator, and, of course, a talented sewist. 🌍✨

This Statue of Liberty in Distress pattern is a Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP) masterpiece, measuring 30″ x 53.5″ when finished. It uses 8 colors and about 15 yards of fabric (with extra built in for mistakes! 😅). Perfect for intermediate to advanced paper piecers who love a challenge. 💪
