    Default Does this look familiar? UFO

    Hi, I'm trying to work on finishing UFO's and came across this almost finished quilt top, with no pattern, of course. I have the appliqué pieces for the last teddy bear, but can't remember the rest. I THINK each teddy bear had a balloon. This was MAYBE from an old Quiltmaker magazine, but who knows which one of the hundreds I have. Does anyone recognize the pattern, and can help me? Please excuse my "girl"- why DO they think anything put down is for them!! Thanks!!

    I don't know the pattern but I would think balloons and/or kites would look great.

    ​I vote for a kite on a string.

    Found it! Teddy Bear Party, Quiltmaker, May/June 03. Each bear holds a string of balloons, with extras spread here and there. Booboo and I thank you for the input!

    A kite would fit into the next blank square. Either balloons or kites would be fantastic.
