Ombre Unicorn lap quilt
 
Best Ombre Confetti Metallic fabrics from Moda are used to make this easy lap quilt. They each require strips of 9 or 10 fabric colors in lengths you can choose. The two shown were made using 6" strips, cutting them 6.5" by width of fabric for seam allowances.
Cut 2 strips of each color and sewing the strips together for one long strip of each color, then cutting each to the size of the length of the quilt.
 
The first one with 9 colors is approximately 55" x 55", including binding.
The second one shown uses 10 colors, a dark blue added to the end and the purple strip moved to the left side of quilt.
Using the same 6.5" x WOF strips, 2 of each color, sew them end to end and cut as desired for a quilt approximately
61" x 61".
Just sew the colored strips together in rainbow order or your order of choice. Press all seams.
Using the unicorn template, cut out 2 using Best Ombre Confetti Metallic in white with gold confetti fabric.
These can be hand-stitched using needle turn applique technique or use raw edge applique technique with iron-on fusible web.
