blizzard quilt
 

Anyone hear of a blizzard quilt? I think it is a scrappy quilt.

When I did a search for "what is a blizzard quilt" your original post on the QB from December 2013 came up https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png Actually I see another thread back in February 2013 you started as well. Sorry this old PC won't do links on QB anymore, but you should be able to find it by searching through your own posts maybe?

As usual I googled it and got information from the Fat Quarter shop. Good luck!

Easy pattern to figure out? Jelly roll strip, squares, background, done?

Very pretty quilt. I was looking it over on the FQ shop and my mind was going to Accuquilt and what shapes I would use to make this very nicely done quilt. Of course there is not a Block on Board but I think it could be done. There are a lot of diamond cuts that are easy enough to make All the pieces will rotary cut real easy. This should not be difficult to graph out either. Best of luck

Oh I was thinking it was a quilt you made while stuck during a blizzard. 🤣 You know, like how people are making quarantine quilts?

Thank you but that is not it.

Could it be????
...... a quilt made when someone was storm-stayed during a blizzard??

That's where my mind went when I saw your title! :D

Either of these?

I googled 'blizzard quilt patterns' and came up with this page. Am wondering if Blizzard is the company name. You may find the one you're looking for here.

Blizzard quilts

Gay .... you sure have got my attention with this!
In particular the first two (same pattern, different source).
WOW what a difference in price between the e-pattern and hardcopy.

I am SO tempted!!!
Having just finished an embroidered snowman quilt, do I really want/need another?
hhmmmmmmm :)

That was my thought too! If I waited for a blizzard, I wouldn't get much quilting done. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/wink.png Even though I am from the mitten state, we haven't had a good blizzard in a couple of years. Yes, I miss a good lock you in the house for three days with soup and a quilt project kind of blizzard sounds delightful to me.

problem for waiting for a three day blizzard here in northern minnesota....is that it usually happens during the very short daylight hours days and the power goes out too. I had a treadle down in the basement I always dreamed of getting fixed up so I could treadle away during a blizzard....both getting a quilt done and keeping warm at the same time. Wonder how hot my ancestors got while motoring that treadle?

That is what I thought Peckish. It has been snowing here for 3 days and getting more snow today and a blizzard quilt is what I thought would be what quilters make while stuck inside the house with bad weather outside

In a lot of states, it isn't just blizzards- it's the brutal cold that keeps us inside. The roads might be fine but venturing out when it is 20-30 below is just not safe. Soon it will be summer.

Hopefully this link will work for you. It is for a post from Eugene Modern Quilt Guild December 2020 meeting. You will have to scroll wayyyy down to the bottom two twin sized quilts. They are blue, white, grey and a touch of green. The link to the pattern is above the 1st quilt, and is the same pattern that was linked in your previous threads about this quilt.

Hope this helps! It really could be a cute, quick way to use scraps and make a quilt. It could also be made larger, if you wanted to keep going.

PS - Assuming that this is the quilt you are looking for - I found the "pattern", such as it is, to be interesting. It explains that pioneer women called these utilitarian quilts "blizzard quilts" as they were done up quickly with what they had on hand as blizzard season approached.

Also interesting was the note at the bottom of the instructions, saying that the pattern was from a list serve group called Quiltopia. Anyone remember that? From the very early days of internet, I think - my memory of it is very vague.
