Partly Cloudy

Meet Partly Cloudy, a cloud and star quilting pattern that turns your quilt top into a dreamy little sky. Soft, swirling clouds drift across the design while tiny stars pop in between, like confetti scattered across the night.

This pantograph moves in smooth, easy curves. There's no backtracking, so your longarm keeps a steady pace from edge to edge. Every pass feels relaxed, not rushed.

Partly Cloudy works beautifully on nursery quilts, kids' blankets, statement wall hangings, and any project that could use a little whimsy. The clouds add gentle motion, and the stars give just the right pop of detail without cluttering the quilt top.

Like all our patterns, this one is an instant digital download. Open the ZIP file, choose your format, and load it straight into your longarm software. No paper pattern, no shipping wait.

If you're after a cloud and star quilting pattern with a soft, whimsical feel, Partly Cloudy is ready to stitch your own little piece of sky.
