Groovy Checkerboard is proof that simple sewing can still pack a punch. Designed with rhythm and repetition in mind, this pattern is ideal for relaxed, satisfying chain-piecing sessions that move quickly and feel good to make.

The modern, graphic checkerboard layout highlights contrast and color without requiring complicated construction. Whether you work within a controlled palette, like the version shown here, or lean fully into a scrappy mix, the design holds together beautifully and lets the fabric do the talking.

This is a scrap-focused pattern that makes thoughtful use of leftover strips and small pieces, including tiny scraps that are often hard to use elsewhere. The result is a quilt that feels graphic, playful, and grounded, while remaining easy to assemble and enjoyable at every step.
