'Back in the day', they used to print quilt patterns in the newspaper. So they would've been free asisde from the cost of the paper.

I would say it would be one of the "Quilting Personalities" that began marketing their patterns during the '70s resurgence and continues today, so Eleanor Burns or Nancy [sorry last name escapes me, "Sewing with Nancy], Kaye Woods, Fons & Porter, Jinny Beyer someone like that.

My vote is for the log cabin quilt.
|
I would vote for the log cabin -- the Eleanor Burns book has been very popular and has had several printings.
|
I tried google with no luck. I did try www.quilthistory.com didn't find it there either. Interesting searching though.

Greatly interested in this subject.
