    Default What pattern is this?

    I saw this quilt on a blog, it's a picture from a quilt show called (B)ordered Orange by Christine Dance. I wonder if this is actually a pattern or whether the maker just put together random blocks. Anyone have a clue?

    Wow, I don't know, but I sure do like it. Some of the blocks are amazing. Yes, this pattern would be wonderful.

    It looks like a sampler quit done in a lot of different block patterns.

    It does look like a sampler quilt or perhaps a block of the month offered at a LQS. It is beautiful done in all the same colours. Due to the different small borders on all of the blocks, I'm thinking it was maybe a block exchange? You often have to add little borders to get the blocks the same size to assemble the top. It would be fun to look for the different blocks and make your own in different colours. Good luck!
