Hummingbird

About this pattern

A ruby-throated hummingbird hovers mid-flight against a deep navy background, wings spread wide in a breathtaking arc of striped blues, teals, and creamy whites. Surrounding the hummingbird, lush hibiscus blooms in layers of coral, hot red, and soft pink unfurl from deep green stems and leaves, their golden yellow stamens glowing at the centre of each flower. The whole scene is framed by an olive-green border with bold red corner squares, giving this folk-art design the warm, graphic confidence of a vintage botanical illustration brought gloriously to life in fabric.

🌿 Thank you for supporting a small independent quilt-pattern studio. Happy stitching - there's always something bright and beautiful on the way at WildbloomQuilts. 🌸

Every pattern in this shop is my own work, from the first line to the last page. I draw each design by hand as an original vector illustration in Adobe Illustrator, then develop it into a ready-to-sew applique pattern - every cutting line, every fabric colour, every template page and instruction. Each one takes time and a lot of care, and I hope that comes through when you stitch it.
