Courthouse Checks Quilt Kit featuring Echo by Emily Van Hoff with Moda Fabrics

Alright. This one is a show-off quilt. Period. Courthouse Checks Quilt Kit featuring Echo by Emily Van Hoff with Moda Fabrics is bold, graphic, and unapologetically saturated. If you love color that feels architectural and modern - this is it.

This kit uses Echo, Emily Van Hoff’s signature woven-gradient look printed on quilting cotton. The fabrics create movement without you having to overthink placement. It’s structured, geometric, and somehow still playful.

✨ The Vibe

Think layered rainbows meeting mid-century architecture. Echo has that dimensional, almost woven illusion — soft color shifts that feel like light moving across a surface. When you cut it into courthouse steps blocks, it becomes this dynamic optical dance of diagonals and checks. It’s graphic. It’s modern. It absolutely holds a wall - but also makes a killer throw quilt.

🧵 Quilt Details

• Finished Size: 71 1/2” x 71 1/2”
• Pattern: Courthouse Checks by Emily Van Hoff (included)
• Skill Level: Confident beginner to intermediate (great piecing practice with high visual payoff)

The block construction is straightforward courthouse steps — the magic is in the fabric placement. The gradients do the heavy lifting.

✂️ What’s Included

This kit includes all the Echo fabrics needed for:

• Quilt top
• Sashing
• Cornerstones
• Binding

Backing fabric is not included (you’ll need 4 3/4 yards - I’ve got options in the shop if you want to keep the Echo energy going).

💡 Why This Kit Works

• The color palette is bright but balanced — warm oranges and yellows grounded by cool blues and teals.
• The woven-look print gives depth without bulk.
• It photographs beautifully (just saying).
• It’s modern quilting cotton with a smooth hand and crisp structure — perfect for precise piecing.

This is the kind of quilt that feels complicated but really isn’t. And I love that for us.If you’ve been wanting to make something bold that still feels thoughtful and curated - this one delivers.
