Make 100 blocks. Play with your favourite fabrics. Make a quilt that looks unmistakably like you.

Kinship is a 100-block sampler designed for quilters who love fabric play, fussy cutting and variety. Choose machine piecing or foundation paper piecing (FPP), make a mix of 8" square and 4" × 8" blocks, then bring them together in one of two quilt layouts.

The machine-pieced version is beginner-friendly — the most advanced techniques are Half Square Triangles and Flying Geese — while the generous block scale gives you plenty of room to show off big prints, favourite motifs and the fabrics you’ve been saving for something special.

Choose your Kinship version

Every Kinship option gives you the full 100-block sampler and quilt layouts. The only decision is how you want to piece it and how you want your pattern delivered.

Prefer traditional machine piecing?
Choose the Machine Pieced version as either a Hard Copy or Digital PDF.

Love Foundation Paper Piecing?
Choose the Digital PDF — FPP version.

Want both construction methods?
Choose one of the bundle options combining the Machine Pieced and FPP versions.

Prefer paper but still want digital access?
Choose a Hard Copy + PDF bundle — including the complete bundle if you want the hard copy plus both digital methods.

What’s included

Whichever piecing method you choose, Kinship gives you a full 100-block sampler to make your own:

• 100 quilt blocks in two finished sizes:
  • 50 × 8" square blocks
  • 50 × 4" × 8" blocks
• Colouring sheets for all 100 blocks so you can plan your fabric choices
• Two complete quilt layout options
• Plenty of opportunity to use favourite prints, large-scale motifs and fussy cutting throughout

Making the Machine Pieced version?
You can cut the blocks with a standard ruler and rotary cutter. Marti Michell templates and rulers can also be used if you already enjoy working with them, but they are completely optional.

How much fabric will I need?

For the 100 blocks, allow approximately 7 yards of fabric in total. This is a sampler, so there’s no compulsory colour-by-colour breakdown — mix prints, colours and scraps in whatever combination makes the quilt feel like yours.

Kitchen Sink layout — finished size 60" × 80"

• Binding: 5/8 yard
• Backing: 5 1/8 yards, or 2 yards of 108"-wide backing
• Batting: 68" × 88"

Plaid layout — finished size 85" × 85"

• Setting squares: 1/4 yard
• Sashing and borders: 2 5/8 yards
• Binding: 3/4 yard
• Backing: 8 yards, or 2 3/4 yards of 108"-wide backing

Want to use Marti Michell templates?

You absolutely don’t need special templates or rulers to make Kinship — the Machine Pieced pattern includes standard rotary-cutting instructions.

If you already enjoy using From Marti Michell Perfect Patchwork Templates, the Machine Pieced version also includes guidance for using them. Across the 100 blocks, the template sets appear in:

• Set A: 11 blocks
• Set B: 63 blocks
• Set N: 33 blocks
• Set T: 2 blocks

The 6.5" Fussy Cut Ruler is also handy if you want to deliberately frame favourite motifs and make the most of feature prints.
