I found it going through some items that my Mother had boxed up - I'm going to visit my newest great-niece at the end of the month and plan to finish this quilt to give to her from her great-grand mother that would love loved her sooooooooo much if she were still alive.
My question is... what is the name of this pattern? The squares are 6.5" each - what size stripping and borders do you recommend to make it large enough for a baby quilt? If I had the name of the pattern, I could google to give me some ideas how I can build upon these squares. I am going to finish the last 2. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :) Kris |
It looks like a Wagon Wheel Block.

or Grandma's Fan? I don't know much about patterns though.
Here's a link on eHow http://www.ehow.com/how_5355007_make...t-pattern.html Here's a link for a few pictures http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedi...dmas-fan-quilt |
Looks like grandmas fan

Turn the squares around different ways so you can get an idea of the different patterns. I like to have some half circles and different positions of the fans. I like these pieces. They will make a neat quilt.
|
Looks like the fan block to me also. Google images of fan block quilts. There are lots of ideas there.
|
Put a pretty sashing around each one and you will have a beautiful quilt.
|
You can also google quilts with drunkards path blocks and set them in different ways. What a treasure you have found.

I'm seeing now - this isn't going to be an easy decision what direction to go and I don't have much timee.... eeeeks...
|
It's a Grandmother's Fan. Have fun deciding how to lay them out! :)
