WOW!!! Your quilt is very pretty...the ugly fabric pulls all of the others together beautifully. Thanks for sharing.

I think Bonnie Hunter's Double Delight pattern be a good choice for any future 'ugly' fabric.

Beautiful quilt! Read somewhere recently! There are no ugly fabrics, they just haven't been cut into small enough blocks, or pieces, yet!

Works for me! LOL!

Golly you did a magnificant job!! I love 1800's fabs and the way you put it together, it's tradition with a modern twist. What pattern is that? It's wonderful to look at, Amie :o)

It's based on Pathway to the Stars which is a free pattern from Windham Fabrics. http://www.windhamfabrics.com/projects/ ... ndex.shtml It's about 2/3s of the way down on the page in the right hand column. I originally saw an ad in a quilt magazine and then used my own calculations based on the amount of the feature fabric I had.
