Whether you're new to free-motion quilting or an experienced machine quilter who wants consistent, repeatable borders, this Roses pattern helps you stitch a continuous floral border quickly. The tear-away design lets you position and stitch the motif along any straight or slightly curved border, and the pattern adapts to fit the length and width of most quilt tops.

How do I figure out how much pattern I need?

Calculating required footage is straightforward and based on your quilt top dimensions and the pattern's stitching width. Use the pattern's finished stitching width to determine how many strips are needed across the length of the quilt, then multiply by the quilt width to convert to feet.

• Divide your quilt top length (in inches) by the pattern's 9.25" stitching width and round up to whole strips.
• Multiply the number of strips by the quilt top width (in inches).
• Divide that product by 12 to convert inches to feet and determine total footage.
• One roll contains 26 feet of the Roses pattern; buy additional rolls for larger projects.

Can beginners use the Roses Pattern #306?

Yes — the pattern is designed to assist quilters learning free-motion techniques while still satisfying experienced stitchers. The continuous design gives a reliable guide to follow, helping you maintain flow and rhythm as you quilt borders.

• Recommended for free-motion quilting practice and guided stitching.
• Tear-away foundation removes cleanly after quilting for a smooth finish.
