There’s something especially satisfying about a quilt that looks complex but is built from classic blocks and clean construction, and this week’s free pattern delivers exactly that.
The Baked Alaska Quilt finishes at a generous 71¾" x 71¾" and features a beautiful grid of Churn Dash blocks that feel playful, modern, and timeless all at once. With its crisp layout and cheerful color movement, this quilt is a joy to make and even more fun to watch come together on the design wall.
The best part? The Baked Alaska quilt pattern is free and available to download for personal use. It includes full instructions, diagrams, and fabric requirements to help guide you through the process from start to finish.

This pattern was originally shown using Bella Solids, but it translates beautifully to Supreme Solids if you’re looking for rich, consistent color and a smooth hand that’s perfect for precision piecing.
Fabric Pick: Supreme Solids
If you love working with solids, Supreme Solids are a fantastic choice for this quilt. The clarity of color really lets the churn dash blocks shine, and the wide range of shades makes it easy to create a palette that feels fresh and personal. Whether you stick close to the pattern colors or put your own spin on it, Supreme Solids keep everything crisp and cohesive.
Thread Suggestion: Glide in Tar Heel
For quilting, we suggest Glide Thread in Tar Heel. This soft, calming blue blends beautifully with light backgrounds and pastel tones while still giving you Glide’s signature strength and smooth stitch quality. It’s a great choice if you want your quilting to enhance the design without overpowering it.
Quilting Design: Sparkling Bubbles E2E
To finish it off, consider the Sparkling Bubbles E2E quilting pattern. The gentle movement of the bubbles adds texture and softness, echoing the playful geometry of the blocks without distracting from them. It’s an easy, all-over choice that works beautifully on a quilt with lots of visual interest already built in.
