A lot of people have sent me private messages asking about this quilt so I thought it best to give details here. The kite quilt was on the cover of The Quilter magazine in May 2004 by Nancy Morris. I googled for more information on the quilt today but found nothing.

If you study the picture of mine I think you can figure out how it was made. You need about 120 two inch squares in various colors. The center white strip which is the longest is 33 1/2 inches long. Then make each one on both sides of it two inches SHORTER and continue on each side another 2 inches shorter. For the kite you need two 4" squares and sew them to two 4" x 7 1/2" rectangles. Then cut that in the kite shape. Do what ever border you want. I used rick rack for the kite tail.
