Help Identifying this Pattern?
Would you happen to recognize this pattern?
I have some beautiful floral fabric that I've had for quite a long time. I've never seemed to find a good pattern that would showcase it and this would be a perfect pattern, I think to use it. I'm definitely a pattern person and don't have EQ nor do I have the talent of so many on this board that can dissect a pattern from a picture and transfer to graph paper....So any help would be so greatly appreciated. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jessica...n/photostream/ |
It may be "garden twist".
|
Garden Maze or Garden trellis? MSQC Merry Go Round is similar.
|
I see two blocks. The large floral pieces are snowballed, some with dark and some with light. Then the smaller pieces are square with dark and light rectangles frames around them.
|
I think you can draw this on graph paper. It is a snowball block and a square with rectangles around it (alternating colors). Set on point. Hope that helps.

Here's a free pattern. http://www.pacificfabrics.com/media/...en_Twist_2.pdf

The original pattern is called Around the Twist by Trudie Hughes. When I first started quilting she was very well know as a top quilters. She was the quilter who came up with how to cut half square triangles by adding 7/8" to make them the right size. If you can find any of her books they are still a great reference with some wonderful quilts.

Isn't it amazing how using different colors can change the look of a pattern.

Thanks for this link, I think it is just what I have been looking for.

That "free" Garden Twist pattern is not the complete pattern. It says to make the basic quilt, then follow this pattern to make the scalloped border. I know because I tried it. I was lucky enough to find the basic pattern in a quilters resale store. Still haven't made it though.

I apologize for my delay in thanking all of you....I've been hit by a Mack truck of a virus, so generously shared by my husband to me....
THANK-YOU each and everyone for the links and the suggestions! I was able to purchase just this morning via eBay the booklet that you need to complete the pattern, as ShirlinAZ cautions that the pattern links say you need the booklet for assembly instructions. OMGOODNESS ManiacQuilter2 your quilt is GORGEOUS!!! trolleystation is so very right, how wonderful this group is in helping and sharing! Heartfelt warm (((HUGS))) to everyone that took the time to help me in identifying this pattern. |
This seems like a great quilt to make.

To me it looks like the Garden Twist or Lover's Knot quilt pattern that I used for a wedding gift for my son and his fiancé. Needless to say that since she called the wedding off a month before the wedding, she did not get the quilt. I did, however, finish the quilt but it became the raffle quilt for my church's harvest fair, as no one in my family wanted it, and it was raffled off with the money put to good use for my church. A couple members of my quilt guild suggested that I call the quilt "Lover's Not", but I didn't. I believe Keepsake Quilting still carries that pattern in their catalog.

Patterns are reinvented all the time in magazines and pattern. To me, it is called a GARDEN TWIST. This was my Garden Twist that was a Queen size.

I hope y'all read the insert on the pattern. Says you need the real pattern to complete the quilt. Good luck! It is beautiful!

I just finished this Garden Twist quilt. I love it. After you get the hang of the layout it goes fairly quickly. I didn't do the elaborate border though. My book just showed the main fabric border. Now to find backing and get it to the LAQ. I'm ready to do another one. Yes, there are two main blocks.
