Coal Miner pattern
"Quilters daughter" wrote in message ... Hello, I am new here. I am searching for a pattern for a Coal Miner quilt block. Does anyone have it or know where I can find it? Thank you in advance! I took a look for this type of block, and found lots that you could buy, I think. Just enter "coal miner quilt block" into google. I could not find any free pdf's that you could download that had such a pattern, but I did not look at all 36,500 results from google. However, it appears that a coal miner's quilt is just stylized pictures of coal miners and coal mining equipment (such as coal cars) in black cloth appliqued down to white cloth, with black sashing(?) in between the blocks. As for the applique, here are some youtube videos on how to do it, both hand applique and machine applique: http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...=applique&aq=1. As for pictures, I did a google search for "pictures of coal miners", "drawings of coal miners", "coal mining", and "coal miners", and found some drawings that might be helpful. I also looked at some of the clipart avialable on the internet, but I did not find anything appropriate. However I only looked at a tiny fraction of the clipart that is available on the internet.
