Hi ladies and gents!
I know someone here will be able to help me! So, I am working on a quilt for a customer, and they are getting quite anxious! So I need to get it done soon. However, regardless of me checking my calculations OVER and OVER again, it appears that I did NOT order enough fabric. You would think, "ok, no problem, just order more!". I would, however, Connecting Threads doesn't have the main color anymore!!! It's a Mirage fabric, but that particular color is not on their website. So, I have now come up with the idea of creating some sort of center piece, maybe paper pieced, so that I can just use the blocks I have to sort of border that center piece. Does anyone have any suggestions for a center block that would work well with the dutchman's puzzle block? I need your help and I need it fast!! Thanks Ladies and Gents!!!! |
I don't know how big your centerpiece needs to be ...
I suggest a large star, like the carpenters wheel. It has triangles like the dutchman puzzle. http://www.quilterscache.com/C/Carpe...heelBlock.html |
Sorry, newbie and can't help. U but can offer encouragement. Hope u get an idea fast and get it done pronto!!

call them. they might be able to scrounge some up from their stock.
worth a try and nothing to lose. |
Post a picture of the fabric here maybe someone has some they would part with. It wouldn't hurt to at least try. Good luck.
|
Can you post a pic of the fabric? Title it ISO this fabric. Many times someone will have it in their stash. Good Luck!
|
you could try ebay to but any block you come up with will look good with that block.

If the fabric were from Northcott, they have a reference on their site where you can look up which store ordered what. Not sure if other companies do that.
