Astrape Pattern - Digital Download
Feel the electricity as fabrics link in this delightful design by Monkey See, Monkey Sew!
Capture the raw energy of a summer storm with Astrape, a dynamic quilt pattern designed to bring high-voltage movement to your sewing room. Inspired by the ancient Greek feminine personification of lightning, this design transforms traditional patchwork into a spinning display of geometric brilliance. It balances the "radiant and formidable" nature of a sky-god with modern geometric piecing.
The unique "slashed" pinwheel design creates a stunning rotational effect that keeps the eye moving across the quilt. Whether you use vibrant Anna Maria inspired florals or sleek, modern solids, the Astrape block provides the perfect stage for your favorite fabric collections.
Designed for quilters who love the look of complex angles but want a streamlined construction process. It’s the perfect project for those looking to master sharp points and bold secondary patterns. The pattern instructions use the Quilters Select 60 degree triangle and Twin 60s ruler OR the Creative Grids Quilt Ruler Half Sixty Triangle Ruler. The pattern includes instructions for a lush, wide border that frames your work and provides a professional, "heirloom-quality" finish.
Pattern Includes multiple size options from small wall hanging to queen size quilts.
