A quilter on another forum I belong to is looking for instructions to make a quilt like the one in the link below. I thought I would post the photo here and see if any of you might could help. She thinks the name may be Chimneys and Swallows. She found one with a black background, and one similiar to this one, but not the exact one. Can you help?

ETA: Evidently this link will not work and I don't know another way to put the photo in. Sorry, I guess this is a lost cause.

Can't get through on that link ??

I posted this link the other day, but scroll down the page

Is it chimney swallows? Your link didn't help me either.

This link has a block pattern called "Chimney swallows". I think it makes your quilt when the blocks are put together. It is a very beautiful quilt. Hope it helps.

When I click on the link it brings up the picture. I have no idea why it won't work for you all.

Sorry

I'll try again and if it doesn't work, I give up.

you have to sign up to be a member

Is this the right one?

Still can't get in there - it asks for a password. Can't access the download at the moment, either. will try later.

That's a beautiful quilt mgshaw, if that's the one. Sure looks like the same block set on point.

Yes that's it.

what a beautiful quilt it works into

I agree, Christines link looks to be the same block.

that's a pretty nifty quilt design, allright. :P

if you have the Block Base software, you can find it by searching on "swallow".

and thanks for the link to the Davis Family Creations site. what a find! :P :P

Wow, that is one of the most beautiful quilts I've ever seen! I love the use of color, tone, tint and value! Set against the white background and with that wonderful quilting - it is amazing!

Wish I could do that!!!

The lady who wanted help find the instructions finally found the maker of the quilt. The following is (hopefully) a link to the website.

There are instructions -- brief ones, with a diagram -- for the Carrie Hall version of Chimney Swallows here:

http://fieldguidetoquilts.com/4Curve...diagrams2.html

You have to scroll way down to the bottom of the page to get to it.

When you use the site, go to the Quilters' Index, and if there's a link to a tutorial or to a diagram, there'll be a box around it. There'll also be a "Make It!" icon along with the block description.

Here's the link to the Chimney Swallows block. It's the last block on the page.

You can look up blocks using the Google the Site page or look them up on the Thumbnail Index or Quilters' Index.
