Steps

  • Step 1

    Begin your decorative paper quilt by deciding how many squares to use and how big you’d like them. Use Crayola Scissors to cut out these background papers.

  • Step 2

    Next, cut shapes to fit your theme, such as different types and colors of hearts. Decorate some of each design the same so that when you alternate them you have a patchwork pattern.

  • Step 3

    Cut out some shapes and then make smaller shapes inside. You can cut little designs out of solid pieces and use the leftover pieces as a design on something else! Use peel-off foam dots to stick your pieces together to create fun 3-D effects on each quilt square.

  • Step 4

    Arrange the squares in your quilt pattern. Measure the top edge. Use a section of cardboard roll, strip of cardboard, or dowel stick for a hanger.

  • Step 5

    Use a hole punch to make holes along the edges. Lace the pieces together and on the hanger with yarn.
