Wow... lots of good answers, thanks! I'll go look up the patterns you all suggested. The Nickle Quilts books look great (did you know she has more than two now?)
I was in a wonderful quilt shop in Jackson MS. yesterday, drooling over a beautiful quilt on the wall, made in Moda's Bliss line. Can't afford to do it right now, but would love to play with some Bliss charm packs!
I must be crazy because they were giving away (in a drawing) some fancy new late-model Bernina machine. All you had to do for your name to go into the drawing was sit and watch a demo of the machine. I didn't even want to spend the time doing that. A complicated, computerized, plastic-housed machine just doesn't appeal to me, even for free! I love my old Bernina 830 and am looking for an even older Singer 15-91... (sigh) Maybe I should go back and watch the demo. That machine could buy an awful lot of fabric and batting. LOL.
