Yes, Lovers Knot thru me for a loop the first time I did it. And it still tends to confuse me at times. Yours is looking good. and it looks correct so far

Shar Jorgenson had the prettiest Lover's Knot quilt I've seen. Her PBS quilt program was one of the best.

Eleanor Burns has a Lover's Knot pattern. You may want to check out her free videos to see if she has one on that pattern. Your quilt is lovely.....love the colors!

That's going to be so pretty. It definitely looks confusing to me! I'd screw it up for sure. When I have a complicated pattern, I make a photocopy and use a highlighter pen to mark off the design as I assemble all the pieces on the design wall.
Oh, this is a good idea! I am going to do that. I have worked with it enough this afternoon that I think I have it conquered....but this idea really will help. Thanks. Dina |

Oh Dina, I'm so sorry you are struggling with your quilt. It looks like you have a picture of how the blocks are arranged so that should help. I found it easier to look at it from the corner. Then, it was just rows that got added on..... and the side lines were fairly straight, especially if I sewed the triangles on as I put it together. But, if I can help in any way, just PM me. I sure don't want you to get frustrated.... I think I was one that encouraged you to do this.

You are doing fine Dina. Start to cut a few of your setting triangles and that might help you get back on track. Your color selections are always lovely. I am working on table placemats with EB book of Lover Knots Placemat. The blocks are made from 1.5" wide strips. I screwed up by not sewing the colors in the proper order sewing the light where I should have put the medium dark. OOPS !! So I have to make some lemonade with the lemon blocks I made. :)

But I am feeling more comfortable and I will PM you if I feel more confusion. :) Thanks. Dina |
