Pattern problem -- I need someone who can think better than me by Violet \F'loonslayer\ Volfie
I found a nice little site that has a BoTM for free on it. The problem is, I can't print out the pattern so I've been drafting up the blocks from the instructions. I'm having a problem figuring out one piece of the pattern and I need someone who thinks more mathematically than I do to tell me if...

Friendship Quilt by Tamara
I am a member of a mini group. One of the members will be moving in 5 months or less. We'd like to make her a quilt. I was wondering besides the friendship star what other type of block could be use as we want to sign the center of the block we make. As of right now we want to make it a two...

My day at the quilt-a-thon by Julia Altshuler
I met a woman at the opening reception of a quilt show last week and liked her. A friend who also knows her knew that she was organizing a quilt-a-thon through her congregation and invited me to come. I jumped at the chance. A quilt-a-thon is an organized event in which volunteers show up with...

Quilt backing by Robin
Has anyone tried making a quilt back from scraps? What I'm thinking of would, more or less, be a crazy quilt on one side and different block patterns on the other side. If you have tried this, how did it work out? Too many seams, too much bulk? Or was it okay? Thanks! Robin

Looking for bird pattern and Nightmare fabric -- any ideas? by \Pussywillow\ Volfie
I'm looking for a pattern I saw quite a bit a year or so ago: it's a whacky looking bird with long legs and in each panel of the quilt, the position of the legs are slightly different. (The body of the bird was sort of tear-drop shaped, IIRC.) When I saw it, the background fabric was black and the...

Sunbonnet Sue gone bad by Debi Matlack
In regards to this swap, have you seen the quilt at The Quilt Index? It's called "The Sun Sets on Sunbonnet Sue" and it has Sue offing herself or being sent to meet her Maker in many ways. Macabre, but funny. http://www.quiltindex.org/basicdisplay.php?pbd=quiltdata-a0a0a2-a -- Debi Ever stop to...

Rotary Cutter Case Pattern (ISO) by Diana Curtis
Does anyone know of a rotary cutter case pattern that is free online? I have googled but what comes up is patterns for eye glass cases which are made using a cutter. It needs to hold both the 45mm and the 30?mm at the same time. Ideally it will be a pieced and quilted case, just to justify...

new scrap project by Roberta Zollner
The Black Hole scrap basket is nearing critical mass, time to do a crazy quilt. After the thread on wallpaper quilting, I decided to do this just a bit differently than before. I cut 6" squares of batting scraps. Then laid out fabric scraps on top of them in a random collage to cover all...

scrap quilt question by Helen in MN
I have a lot of long strips from about 5 years of quilting. They are a mixture of traditional, moda-style, and batiks- no 30's repros though. I will leave out the kids prints. I'm thinking there's enough for me to just start making log cabin blocks. Will it drive me crazy if I mix all these...

looking for old watercolor pattern by Susan Laity Price
When watercolor kits first became available there was a kit with a watercolor background and three black silhouetted crosses appliqued onto the background. Does anyone else remember this kit or am I dreaming? Was it in a book? I have done a google search with no reward. If anyone can send me in the...
