Ok Linnie, I will photo them for you just so you can see what I get to pick from. Still thinking and looking for that right pattern. I thought from going thru the fabrics, they would tell me what pattern they lend themselves to. Also, got a wild hair (before looking at my checking account) and looked in the Connecting Threads catalog that came in mail. I fell in love with the Briar Patch Quilt Kit and the Florabunda Quilt Kit. Then I came to my senses and told myself I don't need another quilt. I would have kept those for myself!
Yep, got think of you and what this quilt will do for you.

Sorry to ask the remaining ladies to be patient.
Back in a bit...

Kind of interested to know if many will show pics of fabrics they are using, but not the pattern they have chosen. The one I chose is definitely civil war era and now I'm having fun researching the underground railroad quilt codes...some believe it existed, some don't.....don't know enough about it but the idea is very interesting. Anyway, hope I've chosen a good one.

OH YES YOU HAVE GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am looking forward to it if that is the theme you are going with. I have given the ones I made like that away. Would so love one along that line. Wow, (wiggle wiggle wiggle in chair (That is a happy dance)). There is a Jennif Chivearii (SP) book that has some stories of the underground railroad. The Elm Creek Novels. Now how am I going to work when I want to have fun sewing and talking with you.

Lauri,
Oh its so beautiful out in that area. Have you ever been? You should go visit. So I have narrowed your quilt down to two different patterns and hopefully the fabric will be here today. The fabric will help me decide which pattern to use. I am so very excited.
