I just did a search, and you can find just the patterns on several online sites, even Amazon. Get ready for a hefty price tag though... it's $80 to $90 JUST for the patterns. Check out Quakertown Quilts, who distribute all Sue Garmin's patterns. (She has several!): http://www.quakertownquilts.com/popu...te-set-po.html
Also... I've recently found a GROUP on Facebook that is Ladies Of The Sea/Sue Garmin FAN PAGE!!! lol Imagine!
Hope you get enthused about it. Let me know if you ever decide to do it...

4. Crockpot crozies
9. Lap quilts for the nursing home.
Gee I think I lost my cotton picking mind, where am I going to find time to do any of these, but I can do what I can do.

Well then we will have to check in with each other from time to time during the year to see how we are doing. I want to make it so badly, but I also have so many other things I want to make; plus Sulabugs' BOM and then Crafty Bear keeps finding all these great projects. I also just purchased the pattern to make a Professional Tote for my SIL who is attached to her laptop; have had the fabric for it for over a year and now I have the pattern. Well I'll just have to cut back on bar hopping, going to the spa and Botox injections and I'll probably have to sell the Porsche and let the pool boy go - oh, the sacrifices.

I already have one item on the list ready to go. Finished quilting one of the little baby quilts I need done. That'll be ready for presentation next week. Woo Hoo, still January and I got something done~!~

My husband and "non-crafty" friends think I am crazy, but I have 5 presents ready to roll for Christmas already. My daughter is having surgery in December and I want to be prepared. I also want to complete 2 quilts for my SIL's for Christmas and am working on a sampler for a dear friend in April. If I accomplish this...All is well in the world!
