    stray block pattern

    A few weeks ago a dear friend passed. While going through her quilting studio, I came across a partially completed top (actually blocks). The box that it is in is marked Fons & Porter. I am unable to find a pattern that could possibly match the blocks and fabric in her studio. I have attached several photos. Any help with finding the pattern and/or the issue of F&P will be appreciated. The fabric selvages are printed "Fast Food" by Possibilities.

    These fabrics have a juvenile flavor and I would like to complete the project for one of her great-grandchildren.

    Blue and yellow stars are made with tri rec rulers I think with red and blue HSTs in the corners. Fussy cut centers in the stars. Ill look in some of my magazines.

    I think I found reference to it ("The Fast Food Kit") but the link is apparently broken and there's no picture. Still, it might be a starting point. http://www.fonsandporter.com/email/f.../20080605.html

    It is very sweet of you to do this for her great grandchild.

    Did you try searching for the Possibilities lines of fabric? Maybe there is a pattern sample made with them on some site, just a thought.

    Just contact Fons & Porter with your request. I have found that the fabric manufacturers and pattern designers are very helpful when it comes to these things.
