I just started making quilts and I was wanting to make a king size quilt with fat quarters or jelly rolls. Does anyone know where to go to download a free pattern for king size using jelly rolls or fat quarters?

Welcome from Southeastern, PA!

I would not tackle a King size if you are new to quilting. You learn a lot with those 1st few quilts & smaller is less expensive to learn on.

Hello there, welcome from Minnesota! I think I'd start out a little smaller also ... maybe start with a lap quilt or a crib size.

Welcome from Centennial, Colorado. I agree a king sized quilt is way too much for a beginner. Don't set yourself up to fail!!! Use the search function on this board to find great resources for patterns. Please, do yourself a huge favor and, start with something small, like a lap quilt or bed runner, you will not be sorry that you did.
