egyptain quilt pattrens

i was wondring if anyone knew where i might be able to get egyptian
pattrens...

I was looking for some as well, but has to settle for egyptian themed
farbics. The only patterns I found were applique ones, and that's not quite
what I wanted.
Here's an address for one I found

Hope you have better luck than me. Post your results, OK? Thanks!

Joyce,
Am afraid I can't answer where to find any egyptian patterns, but thought
these links may give you some ideas/resources that may help you in your
quest:

Hi All,
The above website has coloring pages for Egpyt. Maybe you can use them
for your quilt.

Sorry Joyce, I don't know about patterns but I did see fabric with
Egyptian theme motifs that was nice. It is from Robert
Kaufman...Horizens by Sherrill Kahn.

Dover has a cool coloring book that could work for applique.

OK, I'll bite. Is this any different than a regular charm quilt with
triangles (since pyramids resemble triangles)? If so, got a pattern? Also,
doesn't a charm quilt usually have a large number of different fabrics?
Hmmm, I smell another swap! Woohoo!
Thanks in advance!

Egyptians usually only make whole cloths - floral fabric ( loud
floral!) sewn together stuffed with raw cotton and quilted with 3" - 4
" stiches.

My SIL once made a quiltind crib quilt applquéing some flowers on the
front and adding lace and bows... but she is the needle work teacher
at the local girls school and this was the only way she could think of
practicing techniks with the girls in a useful way.

I also saw an old magazine with a single quiltblock being used as a
cushion cover - they were all diamonds (YIKES!!)

I am in the process of designing some eygyptian inspired quilts one is
already drawn on paper and is on it's way to EQ the other is still in
my mind - both patterns are NOT your usual pyramid/other touristy
thing so maybe i can help you there?
