How nice to meet another Andrea how do wholecloths! :thumbup:
The designs I used here are very traditional quilting designs often used in British Wholecloth quilts. I own several books about the British Quilting tradition and fortunately the books have many pictures in it. Very often I have to re-draw the patterns and make templates or stencils out of cardboard. These quilts from Wales or the North Countries are my favourite inspiration for my own work and I love to use the traditional patterns.
