Doesn't anyone know where I might be able to find a pattern for something like this?

Thanks!

It just so happens I have this fabric which came in a large bag of material I bought from an estate recently. I was going to post it for sale this weekend on this board for almost nothing except shipping. It is white flannel. Let me know if this interests you.
I have 1 yard of the fabric with canoes and logging men; 2/3 yard of the coordinate with deer and moose.

I would love to see someone use it, especially someone who has a definite vision in mind.

Thanks,
Jennie

canoes are 5" in length

Have a look at McKenna Ryan's website. This is one of hers and there are others that you could add a canoe to.

Thanks so much! I had forgotten that the bear and cub was part of a series. It was fun looking at her work. So creative!

There is a beautiful picture of a quilt by Natalie Sewell in her book:

http://www.softexpressions.com/softw...oks/4L0105.php

There is no pattern, but her quilt is used as a teaching example in the book and she tells how she did it. I love her quilt. I tried finding a picture of it, but wasn't able to. You'd have to find the book. Maybe in the library? Or maybe I could scan it and email it to you. PM me if you'd like me to give it a try.
