I am looking for a turtle quilt pattern that uses the Drunkard's Path pattern in it. Where is the best place to find it? Saw a quilt titled Turtle Mania using one that is appliqued. My sister is a turtle "freak" and wants to make this quilt really bad. HELP!!!! :?:

I think maybe the one you want is in the Quiltmaker magazine Sept/Oct 04 issue- it is called "turtle Stampede". It was designed by the staff at QM and uses the drunkards path block.If you can't find it, I will be happy to scan it in and e-mail it to you. PM me if you want it

Copy wright laws apply here?

The magazine states no pattern can be copied or reprinted for COMMERCIAL use without permission. I wouldn't be doing it for commercial purposes.

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!!

I'm confused I guess. I was under the impression you can not photo copy any pattern in magazines. I apologize for any misunderstanding.

The pattern is in Block Base...it is number 1479. It is actually a drunkard path with head and a tail....

Just to cover the bases, I have written to Quiltmaker explaining what I want to do and asked their permission. I am waiting for a reply. I don't want to step on toes!

I don't know what that Block Base is, but yes, it is the drunkard path with a head and tail. On Quiltmaker's web site, they have a free pattern for a stuffed toy using the same block pattern (although, alot bigger).

Sounds cute, I will have to go and look for it.

yes, please. Thank you. 8-)

Hello and welcome from snow & ice bound New Hampshire!

google turtle stampead and the pattern is free for the toy. So easy to make a quilt block from this.

Welcome from Michigan.

That is the one in Block Base (is a stand alone program that contains most every quilt block ever made and will print it out for you any size)

I think I will make the turtle block and post it here in a tut....

Thanks Rosy! My turtle "freak" sister's name is Rosie. She is the quilter. I am just the free labor for cutting, pressing & some simple sewing. This is looks like the pattern we deconstructed from an old square our mother found in her cedar chest recently except it didn't have the legs.

thank you!

good job really cute

Hi, Jill,
Just saw your reply in the past to someone looking for the same pattern I am trying to find. I would love for you to email to me also if you still have the pattern. My email is [email protected]. Thanks for your help.
