Over 20 Animal Rag Quilt Patterns you can make!

I LOVE to make animal rag quilts and over the years have discovered so many cool animal rag quilt patterns!

So far I have managed to make an animal rag quilt for each of my 14 nieces and nephews as well as both of my boys. It is a tradition that continues as more members are added into our extended family.

If you have never made a rag quilt before I promise you they are easy to make.

Check out my in depth RAG QUILT TUTORIAL HERE.

I give these as baby gifts, and can often make them with the scraps I have left over from these animal rag quilts.

UPDATE: I hate to say it but sadly amazon and simplicity don't seem to carry too many of these patterns anymore. SO I MADE MY VERY OWN RAG QUILT PATTERN OF A CAT AND DOG! Don't worry, I still have tried to link the other patterns below as well.

Animal Rag Quilt Patterns

1. Kitty, Puppy, Bear: Simplicity Pattern 4993

This is the second easiest animal rag quilt pattern you could do (Mine is better...lol!) . The pieces are large and easy to sew together.

It is a great pattern to easily adjust as well. I have seen people use this pattern to make animal rag quilts such as an Elephant, Hello Kitty and even a Minnie Mouse rag quilt! One I haven't seen done but would love to is Clifford the Big Red Dog.

2. Fox, Monkey & Horse: Simplicity Pattern 8278

I have just received this pattern in the mail and can't wait to get started on another animal rag quilt. My boys saw it and immediately asked me to make them the monkey, so that may have to be first in line.

3. Turtle, Caterpillar, Dinosaur: Simplicity Pattern 2493

This pattern has gotten a lot of use in my home. I have made numerous caterpillar and turtle rag quilts, along with this adorable dinosaur rag quilt.

4. Butterfly & Owl: Simplicity Pattern 3935

This pattern also comes with a flower rag quilt pattern that could be easily adjusted and turned into a Christmas Tree skirt if you are interested.

This Owl Rag Quilt is the hardest animal rag quilt I have made so far but because it is so worth it I have made it more then once. Owls are adorable!

5. Panda, Fish, Lady Bug: Simplicity Pattern 3955

This pattern is harder to find so the price is higher, but for the NEMO fan in your life it would be sooooo worth it.

6. Peacock, Hedge Hog: Simplicity Pattern 1442

I can't seem to find this pattern anywhere anymore! It's such a disappointment as the Hedge Hog has serious possibilities! I hope they bring it back, and if they do I will add the link!

7. Snail, Turtle, Butterfly: Simplicity Pattern 1822

This pattern is unique as it can be used to make baby rag quilt blankets. The perfect size for a baby gift.

8. Penguin, Frog, Butterfly: Simplicity Pattern 2935

These are animal rag quilt PILLOWS! You can make matching pillows out of the scraps. I have just ordered this one and can't wait to make a frog rag quilt pillow to match my sons turtle rag quilt.

9. Fox Backpack: Simplicity Pattern 8357

It's an Animal Rag Quilt BACK PACK!!!! And the fact that it's a fox is bring me allllll the joy. If my kids were back in their preschool days I would be making this ASAP!

10. Monster Pillows: Simplicity Pattern 1237

Are Monsters Animals? I say check these monster rag quilt pillows out as these monsters are made to cuddle.

11. Lions, Stars & Circles: Simplicity Pattern S8902

This pattern is a little different because it helps you add elements to your squares rag quilt. Little Lion heads on the the rag quilt squares could be cute.
