Looking for an old pattern by Eleanor Burns

As you can tell...I am quilting again! Anyway I have a Quick Quilt magazine from 2000, the last time I quilted, and there is a pattern in it that I just love. Problem is the rest of the pattern is in two other issues that I don't have. Is there any way of getting old magazines or older patterns? The issue is McCalls Quick Quilts May 2000. The pattern is Pastel Bouquets. I need July 2000, Sept. 2000 and November 2000. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

Any way you could post a picture? Maybe someone will recognize it from one of the pattern books.

You guys are incredible! Thank you so much for the link and for the welcome. I have ordered two of the back issues but the Aug/Sept issue is out of stock so if anyone has it please let me know. If not I guess I'll just have to fudge it somehow.

Welcome QuiltingAgain from Pittsburgh. I used to live there and just loved it. Glad you're back to quilting and that you've joined this forum. You'll find wonderful people here and lots of things to get involved with. Try Amazon.com for the magazine, perhaps, or perhaps you could list it on Craigslist.com in the wanted section. If it is out of stock, do they give a date it will be in stock? At least they didn't say out of print, so there is a possibility for it?

Also, if you have the publisher's name, perhaps you could call them and see if they have back issues. Just some thoughts, carol/kittyquilt

Hi Irishgram. That would be great. What I need is the pattern for Pastel Bouquet. Let me know! I'm in the South Hills area.
