Name This Pattern, Please
I am hoping someone can tell me the name of this quilt pattern. When I saw the picture of it, I fell in love instantly. Even my DH liked it, and usually he doesn't say much about these kinds of things. www.amishcountrylanes.com/Pages/hs314.shtml
Thanks for looking & any help you can give me. PS:If you have this pattern or a book with it in it, and would be willing to sell please PM me. Vonda |
It's a combination of two blocks. log cabin and baptist fan. That's all I can tell your from looking.

While I don't have a pattern, it looks to me as tho this gorgeous quilt is made from alternating (as they radiate from the center) log cabin "fan" blocks and regular "straight" log cabin blocks. There's a pretty good video tutorial on how to make "fan" blocks at http://www.qnntv.com/videos/1065_fan-block/
I hope others can provide further help! |
I don't know if there is actually a pattern to be bought for this quilt. It's fairly easy to do a breakdown on it.
The name of the quilt shows the block pattern names. Then Center is Log Cabin blocks, then a circle of Grandmother's Fan blocks sewn with a ribbon effect,(turn every other one as a reverse), then another circle of log cabin blocks not going all the way to the sides, then sections in the corners of Grandmother's Fan, finishing with Log Cabin blocks in the corners, then three borders. The center appears to be 10 blocks wide by 14 blocks long. The bed appears to be a queen, which would be about a 60" top with a block drop on each side.....60/8 blocks on top = 7.5" blocks, which means the logs are probably a finished 1.5" wide. I'm basing that on seeing 5 logs in each LC block. The Grandmother's Fan blocks are 5 fans per block. You may have to adjust a GF block to get the size you need. Hope this helps you. http://www.quilterscache.com/G/Grand...sFanBlock.html shows a 12" block. |
I have a book by Anelie Belden it is called "Thoroughly Modern Dresden" and there are patterns similar to this in there I'm sure Amazon has the book and if your prime all the better.
