Well I will try this again for about the 5th time. I was at a quilt retreat this past week and one of the ladies taught us how to make the Goridan Knot so thought I would post it here but have not got it posted yet that I can see.

Think I finally got

That is really beautiful. You did a great job.

Very interesting and pretty!

That is beautiful!!!! Great job. :thumbup:

I took a class and this was what I also made a few years back.. hmm wonder if it was the same person teaching...

What a beauty! Thanks for sharing.

WOW! That's beautiful. Looks complicated but I'll bet you're gonna tell us it was easy. ;)

Very pretty!! I love that pattern :D:D:D

Beautiful quilt.

Very pretty

This looks so complicated and beautiful. Was it difficult to do? I would love to try something like this, but as a beginning quilter, I'm intimidated. Yours is just amazing!

Love it !! Do you have a pattern or know where to get one ?

Oh, I like that! :thumbup:

That's so cool! Great job, wonderful color choices.

Wow-that looks nice and difficult.

WOW! Great job!

really pretty!

Thats beautidul..Where can I buy the pattern please?

Would love to know more about the pattern too. But gave it a quick search... some postings said they would not sell the pattern without you taking the class? Is that true?

Very pretty.

Very cool and complicated looking!

Complicated looking and beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing!

Very nice!

That's beautiful, looking forward to your answers about how complicated it is and whether the pattern is available without the class. Thank you for sharing.

She did not give us the full pattern. The pattern is from a book by an alaskan women and our teacher has improved on the pattern. It was not that hard but then she was a good instructor. I will e-mail her and see if I can get the name of the book it came out of. They are beautiful and I think I will add some more borders around it to make it bigger for a quilt, if I do will post a picture of it when it is done. Thanks for looking and commenting on it.

It probably was not the same person as this lady lives in Montana in the winter and Alaska in the summer.

The design is by Mary Whitehead, now deceased. There may be other places that sell it, but here's one I found. http://www.eddiesquiltingbee.com/boo...head-mary.html

edit: Some discussions of this book mention that her instructions are, shall we say, unconventional. She gives all measurements as finished sizes so you really have to pay attention.

Supper quilt,great job.

ghostrider you are right it is Mary Whitehead and I have the name in the quilting retreat jumbo which I have not unpacked yet. Yes the lady who gave us the class said that Marys' patterns were difficult and she is trying to revise them and maybe (if it's not infringement of copyright) print a book of instructions. I will try to keep everyone updated. Billie goes to Alaska in the summer so she will be gone from Montana soon but I plan on keeping in contact with her.

GOOD JOB ghostrider.

Same design, different setting, much less expensive. http://www.equiltpatterns.com/quiltp...roducts_id=714

I tell you this is a great place to go you ladies are all so wonderful and full of knowledge. I have to get my board fix everyday. When I got back from the retreat this is the first e-mails I checked. To heck with the rest of them they could wait. LOVE YOU ALL!!!!

Very pretty! Nice job!

Oh my, that Endless Knot quilt design is breath taking. Thank you so much for sharing the link. :-D

Thanks for finding that

I like that, I would like to try to make one. Was it difficult. Does not look like it would be.

This is a very intersting pattern but couldnt you just applique it and make it really simple to do?

Really neat pattern and great work.

WOW! It is lovely. Good job.

very pretty!
