    Default Peaky and Spike?

    I was just thinking about Doreen Speckman & "Peaky & Spike" earlier today. Has anyone made any of those quilts? I used the "search" here on the board but nothing came up. I'm just curious...

    No I have never made any but I remember seeing her on tv. I'm not sure if it was with Alex Anderson or Carol Duvall. She was great!

    I saw her a lot years ago on Alex Anderson's show. I thought she was fun to watch!

    I bought her book, DS Travels with Peaky and Spike. I loved her and remember seeing her on Simply Quilts.Now you've piqued my interest. I think I'll pull the book off the shelf and browse through it tonight.

    I had hoped to go on a cruise with her ... then she died! sigh.

    Now there is the Quilt in a Day ruler: Triangle in a Square ruler, that has a Shining Star quilt directions with it on the outside of the packet. I think that is the same thing, though have never gone back to measure.

    I have a set of the Peaky and Spike templates that I bought off E-Bay when I first started quilting. I've never used them. Don't know that I ever will. I really need to get rid of some of the stuff that I just "had to have" when I first started quilting. Sigh.
