Nothing says ‘cozy autumn’ quite like the combination of plaid and flannel in a quilt. The ‘Perfectly Plaid’ pattern is a versatile choice that adapts beautifully to any color scheme, provided you pay attention to color values. The strip piecing technique in this pattern makes assembly quick and easy, while large blocks create a stunning visual impact

Pro tip: This pattern would work beautifully in quilting cotton, but the plush flannel makes it extra cozy
