Looking for this pattern.
 

It appears to be a storm at sea and snail's trail combined or maybe a 54-40 block with snails trail - I have a customer that wants this quilt but I am not finding a pattern. I hope someone can help me.

I found it here:
http://www.generations-quilt-pattern...t-pattern.html

You do have to scroll down a bit on the page to get to this specific pattern.

this is a great site!!!

I know that its on that generations-quilt pattern site - but it doesn't really give a pattern. I think its just straight storm at sea blocks with snails trail in between. I don't have any EQ software so I am trying to figure out sizes - it doesn't give you that at the website.

This is a truly amazing quilt! Had to bookmark it for my "to do" list.

Looks to me like a snail trail block with fancy schmancy sashing & corner stones. The cornerstones are square in a square in a square. The sashing looks like a tri recs, but it's not. It's elongated, I'm thinking this needs to be paper pieced. The sashing is 1/3 the size of the block, so if you make a 12 inch snail, make 4" sashing and if you make a 9 inch snail, make a 3" sashing

Thanks for showing this - it is also going on my To Do list. THANKS for sharing the link, that is awesome.

What a great site. Thanks for posting.

I made one like that, but mine was a miniature quilt. I just used the snails trail block for the centres with the storm at sea sashing. My snails trail block was 3" finished and the sashing was 1". If you are planning on making a full sized quilt I would definately look at a fairly big block as there are lots of pieces in this pattern. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t-t208253.html

That makes sense - now I am getting nervous -I have never made either block - only paper-pieced once - however I am up for the challenge - just having a hard time figuring out where to start. It looks like your illustration - the most important part is the snail trail - then find a way to make the sashing fit. I do have a tri-recs ruler but have never used it. Oh boy, I really set myself up for a challenge.

If anyone is an EQ wiz - I would appreciate any help you could offer - perhaps we could trade something for help.

A fabulous pattern and wonderful link. TFS
peace

The paper piece pattern is on the web link. Just keep scrolling the bottom, it's past the different "coloring sheets"

This wonderful combination is known as 'Hummer Storm'.
See My Patterns at: www.cherryblossoms-quiltingstudio.blogspot.com
she has the PP blocks there.

That's it greencat - but I agree that I need to make the blocks large or I could be here for the next year piecing these blocks...

I see Woody - that makes sense- omg - what was I thinking. I am hoping I can figure out how to make a 9 or 12" block. Eek...

Ok...I finally got my thick-head around the pattern on the generations website - now I just need to figure out how big it is then I can plan the size of the snail trails blocks. Thank you everyone for all your insight and suggestions.

[QUOTE=PaperPrincess;6699752]Looks to me like a snail trail block with fancy schmancy sashing & corner stones. ...................../QUOTE]

The fancy schmancy is called Storm-At-Sea ..... as explained on the link provided earlier, all they have done is switched out the traditional SIAS block for the Snail Trail to create this interesting design.

[QUOTE=QuiltE;6700021]That's what I originally thought, but if you look closely, the sashing portion is not two Tri-Recs patches. The proportions are different. The Tri recs finishes as an exact square, the same size as the square in square cornerstone. The storm at sea main block is twice as wide as the Square-in-square cornerstone block, so using tri-recs sashing works.
The quilt in the post has main blocks that are 3 times the width of the cornerstones, so if you tried to use 2 square Tri Recs patches, you would be short. Can't use the TR ruler because in addition to the blocks not being square, the angle is going to be different.

Otis I went to the generations site and this is how I saw it. it is the Snail Trail block surrounded by the sashing that is on the site as a template download. At the end there is a link for the Storm at Sea paper piecing quilt block and click on it and it will fit this Snail Trail block at http://compuquilt.com
The Snail Trail block will finish at 6 inches and so will the sashing.

Part 1 has the pattern for a 5x6 and a 5x7 block

Thank you for sharing this site. I can see myself spending time on this site.

Before I read Prism99's comment, I was going to say that it looks like snails trails blocks with the sashing making the second block appear, but since she gave you the site, I won't do that. What I will say is that is one gorgeous quilt pattern, it would make a knock out quilt.

I agree with both of them. It looks like fun. I signed up for the generations quilt newsletter as well.

..or snails trail with sashing that gives the illusion of another block.....

Great pattern and awesome site - just spent over an hour there looking at everything!

Like this Quilt, Thanks for the pattern

Another pattern that is close to this is "Shakespeare in the Park" by Judy Martin. It's been on my to do list for awhile! http://www.pinterest.com/search/pins...t&rs=ac&len=18

That is so lovely! I want to make it too! I'd want to make the snail's trail bigger as well so it wouldn't take so long!

Otis- you go girl friend! another challenge for you! can't waite to see the finished quilt which ever pattern you choose!!!!!
