Pattern Updates

I always work to bring you the best pattern and quilting experience. However, patterns still sometimes require an update, whether that is clarifying some instructions, correcting a mistake that snuck in, or reformatting to help with visuals or the flow of quilt construction. If you see anything in a pattern you think requires an update, and you don't see it on the list below, please email me at hello@pennyspoolquilts.com

How to get pattern updates:

If you purchase a PDF pattern through my shop here, you will automatically get an email with the updated version whenever an update is made. If you do not see the update email, you can use the download link in your original order email.

If you purchased it through Etsy, or bought a paper pattern, and would like to get the update, please email me with your proof of purchase.

Updates:

ElemenoQuilt:

  • January 13, 2025: The fabric requirements on the back should have a note that the letter X needs to be cut from 6" x WOF (it does not fit on a F8).

Flocks of Colour:

  • The pattern was re-released on June 5, 2023. The pattern has been completely rewritten to include more quilt sizes and colouring options, as well as bonus content. If you have the original and need to re-download it, please contact me. Due to the complete overhaul of the pattern, I'm unable to provide the new version as a free update.

Bar Code

  • February 8, 2024: The pattern was updated with a few major changes. The pattern overall is the same (same sizes, same colouring versions) but I have reformatted it to look the same as my new patterns. Some text was edited for clarity (no change in the actual process), the cutting instructions are now in table format, and it includes colouring pages for all sizes.

Twisted Log Cabin (FPP):

  • The pattern was updated on May 12, 2023. This update is purely cosmetic.

Twisted Log Cabin (traditional):

  • September 20, 2024: I have added additional explanations and graphics on how to trim the block to size.

Swirly Lollipop (FPP):

  • The pattern was updated on June 5, 2023. This update is purely cosmetic.

Puffin (FPP):

  • June 9, 2024: The colouring diagram for section H contained one too many stitching lines, and therefore the numbering was off. The template H is correct, only the colouring diagram was affected. 
    If you have a printed pattern and would like an updated colouring diagram, please email me.

Puffin Head (FPP):

  • July 10, 2024: This affects the printed version only. The colouring and assembly diagrams  in one print run did not match the templates (however, the templates do produce the Puffin Head as shown, the pieces are just divided into sections slightly differently to fit on the booklet pages and the colouring/assembly diagrams did not match this). If you have a printed version where the templates and diagrams don't match, please email me and I can send you the correct assembly diagram.

Rainbow Star

  • The pattern was updated on May 23, 2023. In addition to cosmetic changes, this update contains some instructions rewritten for clarity, as well as an updated assembly diagram and colouring diagrams that are no longer mirror images (in line with all the other FPP block patterns). 

Scrappy Apple (printable tutorial):

  • September 6, 2023: The fabric requirements for the tree version have been updated. Sections E & F were incorrect, and there was a typo in the instructions for the pumpkin version.

Holiday Spirit:

  • November 15, 2023: The labelling of the diagrams for the 2nd method of making the star blocks did not correspond properly to the instruction text. No printed patterns were affected.
  • March 24, 2024: There was a mistake in the letter Y. The background fabric should be cut as follows: (2) 3 1/2" x 3 1/2", (2) 4" x 4", (2) 4" x 5". The instructions for Step 1 should read: Make corner triangles on the 6" x 5 1/2" piece of main fabric. Use the 3 1/2" background squares in the top corners of the main fabric rectangles, and the 4" squares in the bottom corners of the main fabric rectangles. Place the squares on the bottom left and top right corner...
    If you have a printed pattern and would like a PDF version of the updated pattern for Letter Y to put in your booklet, please email me.
