How to help needed
I have been making this quilt for DH's cousin but have run out of the
centre 'garden' fabric. http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/...53289228BoQaTR I have about 20" of each of the other 3 fabrics left as well as another piece of the red that is about 50" long. I want to add more length to it and need some suggestions on ways to do this. Help please... anyone...? Dee in Oz |

Dee, if you have the time and inclination to make a great production of
making it longer, a row of flying geese at top and bottom would be good. If you're just wanting to grow it, simply adding strips of each color at top and bottom will do the deed. The quilt is terrific and either one will be fine - my, how I do love that quilt. Polly "Dee in Oz" wrote in message ups.com...

Dee,
Can you get a closer up picture of the garden fabric. I might have some here that I would be happy to send to you, but I can't see enough detail on yours. If I don't have it - perhaps someone else on RCTQ might & be inclined to share it with you. Pauline Northern California "Dee in Oz" wrote in message ups.com...

Aww shucks, thanks Polly.
I have to admit I am happy with my colour selection ( hate selecting fabric that 'goes'). I had thought of strips but hadn't thought of flying geese......

Here is a close up Pauline
http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/...53289228zpehNy But I really doubt anyone would have some.

Maybe some flying geese top and bottom? Randomise the fabric so (as in real
life) no two geeses are the same? -- Sharon from Melbourne Australia (Queen of Down Under) http://www.geocities.com/shazrules/craft.html (takes awhile to load) http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/shazrules/my_photos (same as website but quicker) "Dee in Oz" wrote in message ups.com...

No you didn't get my hopes up Pauline. I have only just realised how
soon I want this finished. School holidays are coming here faster that I realised. Dee in Oz On Feb 23, 4:31 pm, "Pauline" wrote: Nope - mine doesn't match - mine looks sort of like a Monet print.
