Privy Garden BOM - Complete Kit Available 

Designed by Karen Lewis for Figo Fabrics. She designed the Hampton Court fabrics and the Privy Garden pattern for this BOM. Weekend strolls around Hampton Court in the UK were Karen's inspiration for this fabric collection. From the elaborate ironwork on the ornate gates, to the cobblestones throughout the paths and courtyards. Details form the unstructured grasslands and wild meadows in the neighboring Royal Parks all feature in this collection. The Privy Garden is the name of the baroque private garden at the back of the Hampton Court Palace where wrought iron screens are featured at the back near the River Thames. The layout of the formal gardens is reflected in the layout of the quilt and use of the trellis prints.

The BOM is made up of 7 different blocks (1 foundation paper-pieced and 6 traditionally pieced blocks). Block size 5". This BOM is for Confident Beginners and up. 

Helpful videos are available on FIGO's YouTube channel for this project.
