Thank you so much for stitching along with the Understory pattern! We work hard to make our patterns as accurate as possible, but occasionally updates are needed.
A minor update was made to the Leaf Cutting Charts in Months 1 and 2. Because this affects an early step, it carries over into a few subsequent charts. Please review the updated charts below to ensure your pattern booklet matches.
Hard Copies: Newer printings may already include these updates. Look for the asterisk on the back page of your package. If it’s there, it’s already been updated and you can disregard these updates!
Instant Downloads: If you purchased directly from my site before August 19, 2026, you’ve already received an email with these updates (check your SPAM folder if you haven’t gotten it yet!). Instant downloads purchased after this date have already been updated.
If you own a hard copy and would like a replacement for Month 1 – 2, please contact me and I’ll send you one at no charge. Please include your order number if you purchased from my website, or the name of the shop where you purchased the pattern if you bought it from a quilt shop.
Fabric Requirements
We just have one correction on the fabric yardage chart for Leaf 3 (Fabric D) in the TWIN and KING sizes only:
The Twin size previously called for 1/2 yard, update this to 2/3 yard.
The King size previously called for 1 yard, update this to 1-1/8 yard.

Month 2: Joining Quarter Circle Blocks – should they look like this?
I got this question from a quilter and thought she might not be the only one!
Yes, your blocks should look like this while sewing in Step 1 (Month 2). When you stitch them to their neighbor blocks, that little square of background fabric will disappear into the seam allowance!
