Such a pretty quilt, love it. Thanks for sharing this, never heard of it before.
|
Curious, what magazine did you find this in? Wondering if it is out there on the web. Pat

magazine called Quilt winter of 1990. I understand it is also called smoothing iron learned this from grammydwynn
I have to say the magazine left out some important pieces in the instructions, but grammydwynn put me back on the right track |
I think this is the same pattern, different name for those in search of it : http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com...49-pdf-pattern

Thanks, I thought I might have it but my magazine stash doesn't go back that far.LOL The other post with the thimbleblossoms looks like it, what do you think? BTW this would be a challenging quilt for someone but especially for a beginning quilter. Lovely though.

Looks like thimbleblossoms. I have also heard it called smoothing iron by grammygwynn. Yep it has been a challenge since mag did not give directions for the end pieces but grammygwynn helped me and I am cruising along now. I really do enjoy looking at it as I am sewing on it.

That is a really nice quilt. I like quilt patterns that are more challenging!

Hello, Thank you for the warm welcome.
Has anyone made the road to Florida quilt? I, found a picture and pattern in an old quilting magazine and I am thinking I will just a take a deep breath and give it a try. I have only made one quilt which was the dresden pattern and have made quilt blocks for pillows, but I am just a little nervous ( no really nervous about my skills). Please share with me your ideas. I also have have an old quilt magazine with a pattern by that name. I wanted to make it for years. This pattern is made w triangles. There is a triangle surrounded by rectangles with a little diamond square on one end, so that each triangle has a diamond on each point. when pieced together, the blocks form little stars where the diamonds meet. is this the one you have? |

Hope this is helpful. Seems an easy block to piece.
And I printed out a coloring page from that magazine so I could have fun w colors and the stars. now, if I could only remember where I pit that. lol |
