Kaha means Courage Quilt Pattern by Julie Robertson of Sublime Stitchery
Downloadable PDF
Kaha (verb) in te reo Māori carries a powerful meaning: to be strong, able, capable, courageous, intense, and energetic. This quilt design embodies those qualities with its bold, punchy points and use of vibrant colours. The blocks themselves demand a bit of courage—they're intricate, time-consuming, and yes, a tad repetitive. But that's where the magic lies! By embracing the rhythm of the process, you'll experience the satisfaction that comes with completing each step.
The throw-sized design is also wonderfully flexible—add blocks and sashing to make it larger, or reduce the number of blocks to make it smaller. Embrace the process, channel your mahi (hard work), and enjoy the reward of creating something beautiful and uniquely yours.
