Looking for a pattern
I am looking for a specific pattern. I hav found its name on quilts for sale with no chance of a pattern,
Names are; Egyptian jigsaw puzzle, Japanese jigsaw puzzle. Has anyone any idea where I can find one. It looks like offset diamonds is best to explain. |
Google Japanese Jigsaw Quilt Pattern and you will come up with many patterns and images.
|
shiboridragon.com has it.
|
It's called the Japanese Puzzle block. AKA Pine Bark pattern.
It's one of my favorites. Google those two names and you'll see a bunch of different techniques. But there are some "cheater" methods out there that don't give quite the same effect. The best instructions I ever saw were in a Quilter's Newsletter from the early '00's. I can't find a picture of mine but I did it with batiks. Which really wasn't the most brilliant thing to do. Unless you're a really, really organized, neat worker. I had a separate mat (I drew on the back) just for the JP. I always planned on making more. |

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH ESPECIALLY DEBRAK. I have been looking for this pattern for 2 years and have always found quilts but no pattern. Next project will be this long awaited quilt for ME.
|
I have never seen that pattern. It looks like a good challenge. Please post pictures of your progress and finished quilt.
|
Thanks DebraK for the link -- I too have been seeing the quilt but did not find the pattern.
|

I wanted to make one to already for some time. This tut makes it very clear to me, so thanks!!! |
