Kyoto Steps Quilt Pattern by Robin Pickens

SKU: RPQP-KS123

Clean lines. Calm movement. Modern impact.

Kyoto Steps is a beautifully balanced quilt design that uses six prints and a background fabric to create rhythmic “stepping” rectangles that flow from the center outward. Larger panels anchor the middle, while smaller rectangles move toward the top and bottom in a spaced, architectural layout.

It's modern without being fussy - bold, graphic, and incredibly satisfying to piece.
