Hubby's best friend has requested another quilt (yay!)

He would love something that reflects his passion..the outdoors and canoeing.

He would love a landscape quilt that has the woods, water and a red canoe in it.

Doesn't anyone know where I might be able to find a pattern for something like this?

Thanks!

Umm.....I am not sure about a patten but there are several lines of fabric with this theme.

I recall Natalie Sewell's landscape quilt just like you described. As a matter of fact Nancy's Notions just sent out their class schedule for July/Aug/Sept and that quilt is on the first page advertizing her workshop Friday and Sat Aug 27 and 28th, I am not sure if she has a pattern for this or not.

Thanks for the tip Maggie_Sue.
I will look into it to see if I can even just get a picture!
I figure it will have to be applique for sure :)

Look into Debbie Fields of GRanola Girl Designs. She has books and patterns out. I'm planning to work on a wallhanging with some of her blocks this summer.

I cannot draw worth a hoot, but this is the picture that popped into my head. Don't you dare laugh. (No it isn't! It's a bear)

I like your picture :)

I just thought of something. You could google simple pictures, such as the ones kids use for coloring. Bears, trees, waterfalls, canoes, all that stuff would be there I bet. You could incorporate them into an applique wallhanging.

(and thanks for not laughing at my drawing)

That is likely what I will end up doing boston...I was just hoping there was an easier way to go about it haha not a huge fan of applique!
