What you get+-

The Mix & Match Monsters pattern is so much more than just a pattern.

What do you get?

The templates for SO MANY MONSTER PARTS! Seriously – there are 24 pages jam-packed with templates for bodies, eyes, mouths, fins, feathers, hands, tentacles, antennae, stripes, spots and more – all sized to work together. You can make a kajillion monsters and never have a repeat.

(Ok – I know kajillion isn’t a real number, but I’ve made over 100 different monsters and I’m nowhere near running out of possible combinations.)

Want to see how it works? Here’s a little video I put together walking you through some sample blocks.


In addition to the templates, there are links to videos teaching you three different appliqué techniques - needle turn, machine appliqué, and appliqué with fusible adhesive. It also has links to nine additional lessons showing how to add sashing, 3D bits, faux trapunto, and fancy fabrics like fur, fleece, satin and shiny tissue lamé!

I used appliqué with fusible adhesive and Quilt As You Go to make a super easy quilt - almost all done on the machine. 

You Get. . .

  • A digital pattern delivered instantly by email - if you're not sure what a digital pattern is, click here for more info
  • 24 pages of mix & match monster parts - bodies, eyes, ears, arms, tentacles, spots, stripes, eyebrows, and more. They're all specially designed to work together in lots of different ways! For example - a skinny rectangle can be stripes, hair, or eyebrows. A semicircle can be a mouth, hair, back ridges, toenails or scales. There are hundreds of different pieces and it's going to be so much fun to play with them!
  • Samples of dozens of different monsters 
  • Detailed instructions and links to videos teaching you all the skills you’ll need to complete the project. It’s a workshop disguised as a pattern! 
  • Detailed cutting instructions for crib, nap and twin sized quilts.
  • Instructions for assembling the quilt – layering, basting, quilting and binding – with links to videos for all of them - including links to Quilt As You Go videos.

    Size

    Each block finishes at 10 inches square. The pattern includes detailed instructions for the following sizes. . .

    • crib (52.5" wide x 57.5" tall)
    • napping (52.5" wide x 69" tall) - this is my favorite size for on the couch
    • twin (75" wide x 92" tall)

    You can also use the monster patterns for lots of other projects, like wall hangings, table runners, placemats, and more.

      Difficulty

      I designed this quilt to teach appliqué – so it’s great for beginners, and a fun and relaxing project for more experienced stitchers. If you can use your sewing machine, you have the skills you need to make this cuddly monster quilt.

      I used appliqué with fusible adhesive and Quilt As You Go to make a super easy quilt - almost all done on the machine. The pattern also includes links to videos teaching needle turn appliqué and machine appliqué with freezer paper, in case you prefer those methods.

      Have fun with it!

      Mix & Match Monsters Quilt Pattern

      I just cut all my squares and have started the quilting the blocks. Can't wait for the grandchildren to come help make the monsters. This is going to be a gift to the Great-Grandson who is para-poligic (I don't know how to spell it let alone say it, handicapped). We are going to have a great day cutting out the shapes and starting the layout. Then I will really have fun sewing!

      Darling monsters and clear concise directions

      I love this pattern! I’ve made four Trick or Treat bags using these cute monsters. Each bag is cuter than the next! Thank you Wendy #1 for your creativity #2 writing clear, easy to follow directions and offering free patterns too! 😃

      So much fun

      I love love love these patterns. Two Munches made and quilt is next. My daughter and husband are decorating their nursery in a fun monster theme. When I found this site, it was so cool. Patterns and directions are easy to follow. Meet Munch and Munchette below. Made the eyes, since I did not want eyes to fall off.
