Two New Skull Quilts to Love: Meet Muerte in Bloom & Echo of Bone

If you’ve been craving something bold, vibrant, and a little bit wickedly fun for your next quilting project… oh friend, you are in for a treat. I’ve been bursting to share these two new pixel-style skull quilts with you—and they couldn’t be more different in personality.

One is loud, floral, and ready to party.

The other is moody, ancient, and quietly powerful.

And together? They make the ultimate duo.

Let’s meet them!

Muerte in Bloom: A Celebration in Every Stitch

Muerte in Bloom feels like pure joy stitched into fabric. Inspired by the bright, floral energy of Día de los Muertos, this quilt is a burst of color from edge to edge. Even though it looks dramatically detailed, it’s made entirely from simple squares—making it perfect for confident beginners, scrap lovers, or anyone ready to play with color.

Bold blossoms. Shimmering accents. A sugar skull that smiles right back at you.

This quilt absolutely blooms on a wall, couch, or festival display. Whether you choose bright brights or rich jewel tones, every version becomes its own celebration.

Perfect for:

• Confident beginners

• Lovers of bold, festive color

• Scrap/stash busters

• Seasonal décor or year-round brightness

• Anyone who wants a “wow!” project with easy construction

Echo of Bone: Quiet, Powerful, and Deeply Atmospheric

If Muerte in Bloom is the loud celebration, Echo of Bone is the ancient artifact you discover in a forgotten library at midnight.

Worked in soft bones, warm sands, and deep shadows, this pixel skull has an elegant, weathered look—like it’s been carved from stone or unearthed from a desert ruin. Still completely beginner-friendly, still made entirely from squares, but the mood? Totally different.

This one is for the quilters who love neutral palettes, subtle gradients, and designs that whisper instead of shout.

Perfect for:

• Gothic or moody décor

• Halloween (or anytime—skulls are year-round!)

• Makers who love neutrals

• Modern, minimalist, or rustic interiors

• Quilters who want impactful art without tricky piecing

✨ Two Quilts, One Beginner-Friendly Technique

Both patterns share what I love most about pixel-style quilts:

• Beginner-friendly construction

• No tiny pieces or fancy tricks

• Amazingly bold results

• SO much room for color play

Whether you want playful or powerful, floral or fossil-like, bright or brooding—you’ve got a skull quilt to match your mood.
