Needing help finding a pattern...
I have had wonderful help finding patterns using this site before and I am needing your help again. I once saw a picture of a quilt somewhere that I'd like to make. However, every website I've checked for this pattern, I have not had any luck. I am once again asking the wonderful people at "Quilting Board" for some help.
I remember it as "Attic Windows" but all the attic Window patterns I find have 4 windows per 1 block. The one I saw, had only 1 window per 1 block. The window blocks were 9", I think. I pulled out all my books and recently received magazines and still have had no luck. There was one prefex picture in a book called "Cats in the Attic", but it had no pattern or link to find one. I would appreciate any suggestions. :-) |
If you're looking for just a block pattern (not a whole quilt):
CompuQuilt has one with the set-in Y seam that uses templates: http://67.20.92.103/atticwindows.html Be sure to click on the item labeled Nine Inch Template Attic Window. And Quiltaholic has one without the Y seam (uses the half square triangle instead) called Easy Attic Windows at: http://www.quiltaholics.com/bom/attwin.htm |
I have seen it in one of my old quilting mag's. I think I tore it out to keep. I will look for it and if I find it I will PM you. If I have it I will be happy to make a copy and send it to you.

I saw that in one of my old quilt mags too. I'll look as well

Get a square ruler and a piece of paper big enough and draw a square the finished size you want and then play with how big you want the square and the frame. When you decide on a proportion that looks good to you add 1/2 inch to each piece and cut scrap fabric and try it out. Then you'll have your own pattern exactly the size you want. |
every one here is so helpful that is why i love this place

This is NOT exactly what you wanted but nice anyway, and the technique is well explained

I think this may be just what you need. It uses the HST method instead of the Y-seam method http://www.straw.com/equilters/libra...ticwindow.html
