pattern frustrations
 
About two weeks ago I placed an order at Missouri Quilt Company for a couple of jelly rolls and a layer cake the at I really liked. One of the jelly rolls matches the layer cake but the other didn't because I didn't have a pattern in mind for it. A couple of minutes later I found a pattern that I loved that required two jelly rolls so I quick ordered another one. Then I thought to myself "I have that pattern at home" and closed the browser. Guess what! I don't have the pattern at home and now for the life of me I can't find the pattern no matter how I search for it on the web. I know that I'll know it when I see it again and I have found some that are close but they just are not it.

Have you ever found a pattern you love, didn't get it, and then can't find again?

How do I move on and try and find something I like equally as much?

someone on here might help you find it if you could describe it well enough.

Hard for me to describe. It's one of those I'll know it when I see it type things. However, I do think it is similar to the first one in this blog:

you can look at your browser history to retrace your steps to where you found the pattern

sandrab64 - Close but not quite. The link I closed was an actual pattern to purchase.

OhCanada - I tried that but there was to much in the history and I think I was on pinterest and clicked on a link. That wouldn't be in my history I don't think. Plus I got a new computer and all the history has been lost. womp womp womp.

Thanks so much for the assistance.

I know exactly what you mean. I found the perfect black and cream fabric to do a kaleidoscope quilt with and thought I bookmarked it but I guess I didn't....and can't find it anywhere in the history.

Ah, well....it's not the worst thing that could happen.

Hope you find yours.

I am still running XP on my old computer and keep my history because I can always find out where I have been running Mozilla.

I would start searching for it and I would start looking at Jelly roll patterns in Google Images
https://www.google.com/search?q=Jell...w=1016&bih=598
and Pinterest. Good Luck.

If it was a Missouri Star pattern you can probably find it in their YouTube tutorials.

I would try doing a Google search using whatever descriptive words you remember, then click on "images" and see if you can spot the pattern that way. Also you can try going back to Pinterest. I've noticed that many of the images from day to day remain the same on mine. If it doesn't appear, try searching jelly roll quilts on Pinterest. If there were quarter circles or half circles in the quilt, put that in the search description too.

Pinterest web sites will show up in your browsing history if you have not cleared your history since seeing the pattern. You may just have to follow every link which can be time consuming

Kitsie 03-15-2016 08:48 AM

Sorry, just read your response to this suggestion!

My thought, too! The "History" on your computer may have the link. How frustrating!!

Was it Time after Time? It's made from Jelly Rolls, and has the look of the drunkard's path block that you showed. I made it last year and it was a fun quilt to make.

Hope you find what you're looking for.

Whoops, I guess I was looking at the blog heading. Sorry for the confusion.

Was it the RIBBON QUILT that was shown in mint and salmon and gray? That one is similar to the first one on the blog that you mentioned.
I am not computer savvy enough to paste a link, but if you google THE RIBBON QUILT you will see the one that I am talking about.

sailsablazin 03-16-2016 07:15 AM

OOPS! Now it does not come up with google.

Save it for future reference. Would love to know the name of the pattern or link to.

It's in this book and it is Winterberry, the second one pictured.

Thanks for posting. It looks complicated. Wonder how it goes together?
