Hi

My adult Son asked me to make a quilt for his Sister who is graduating HS this year. Of course I said yes, we love her Sister as our own.

Anyone have a suggestion for a scrappy pattern that is rather easy but looks difficult?

How about a Log Cabin where you turn the cabins to make various designs? (BTW, I don't blame you 8-) )

Oh, I am so with you on this! Mine was the wedding dress for my step daughter.........

Make sure that it is the sister's favorite color and something that has meaning for her. Lots of easy patterns out there for free. Maybe one of you favorite patterns.....

Reminds me of the saying " I miss my EX but my aim is getting better"!

I just found a pattern. It is called Wheel of Wonder. It was in a magazine. Has a slight curve to it, but the pattern I saved did it all using an applique technique (no sewing curves!).
here is a link to what the finished quilt can look like.

http://marilynpilkeyart.homestead.co...lofwonder.html

It is a simple block. just has what looks like a four leaf clover on it (thus why I like it) but when all together its "wow".
I haven't posted a link on here before, so this is trial and error, If anything copy and paste to go see it. :thumbup:
