I have a picture of a quilt I'd like to make but no pattern. It's actually only available in a kit. Any suggestions on how to duplicate?

topper1 - I've tried that and it won't take the image, I think because it's scanned. This is a great site tho.

QuiltingGrannie - It's actually on the cover of the Keepsake Quilter catalog. I will try and scan it again.

Thanks!

OK, we can do this. This is a 7 x 7 grid with 2 blocks. One block is just 49 squares. The other block is an Ohio star surrounded by small squares. I don't know how to post a picture layout, but just break the star block down into a 9-patch with 4-patches at the corners and you should be able to see it. I don't know what size the original is, but I would guess the small squares are 2 or 3 inches.

WOW! You are good!!! I thought it had some sort of Irish Chain with stars added - Thank You, I will try your suggestions. The size is 82" x 82" - now I'll just have to figure out how much fabric to buy.
