Illusion quilt pattern
 

I'm looking for a pattern for a 2 color quilt where the background and center is switched then when all together it for an illusion. Can anyone help me?
Thanks terry

can you show us a picture or something. I am having trouble visualizing it but it sounds interesting.

I saw it on a post under Main called 2color quilts posted on 9/24 by Jingle. I love them

for anyone interested in making the Illusion quilt. Go to QuickQuilts.com. Type it into the search box and click go. Trylyn sent me a PM and I sent this answer to her.

Was it wheel of mystery? It's very striking when done in 2 colors.

i made one a few years ago.....without a pattern.........it is just a rectangle with a border switch and re-pete

Thanks. I'm looking forward to making this.

I have a two fabric "cracker quilt" on my bucket list. Love this pattern. http://quilting.about.com/od/quiltpa...lt-pattern.htm

very good! I would never have guessed that was what she was looking for.

If you really love illusion quilts check out Karen Combs quilts of Illusion

The cracker quilt is pretty. To make it larger I would just make the pieces bigger right?

So sorry I spelled your screen name wrong. terlyn. I hope the others interested in this pattern will read my post on 9/28/2013. Always glad to help.

Terry: To make it larger you could make the blocks larger, as you noted, or you could add more blocks to each row, or you could put borders on the quilt. There are many ways to increase the size of a quilt and each subtally changes the look. For instance a larger block will make the design look even more modern, smaller will create a sort of plaid design and boarders will frame the design. Thats part of what is so much fun about quilting, the same design can be modified for almost limitless looks. Also, don't forget color changes.

here is the link to the McCalls 'Illusion' quilt (finished size 89X107.5) ~ http://www.mccallsquilting.com/patte...html?idx=12586

I am working on this one. It is an Erin Underwood pattern.

Looks pretty. And difficult meanmom.

Did you use the 10 degree ruler?
