Searching for this Pattern
2 Attachment(s)
Can anyone tell me where I can find the Pattern for this quilt? My friend loaned the pattern and never got it back. She said it was called Woodlands but I did a search and couldn't find it. Thought someone may have it or know the exact name of it. It was made over 20 years ago or so. She would love to make it again.
Thank you. |
Sure is pretty - will watch for the name...some one should know.
|
I hope so. Thought if anyone would know it would be someone in this forum.
|
This is a very nice quilt! If no one knows the pattern source you can trace the applique designs from the quilt to make new templates.

It looks like a Jean Ray Laury pattern.
|
Beautiful quilt. Don't you just hate that...you loan something to someone and you don't get it back. I would trace the applique and measure the blocks you should get ti pretty close that way.
|
I do remember that quilt....and I think it was called Woodlands quilt..and I think it was probably closer to 30 years ago that it was a "popular" pattern...I hope you can find a copy.
|
That is a beautiful quilt. Don't know the name of it though.

Problem is she doesn't have the quilt. She made it for her sons teacher. Thanks for the suggestions.

sorry cant help but its abeautiful quilt!
|
Simply use it as inspiration and draw your own adaptations of the designs. They are very simple folk art patterns. Why make an exact copy of someone else's creative work when you can break new ground and create a one of a kind original! :)
|
Good answer, Ghostrider, the pattern is clear.
Lol sorry I couldn't resist! |
beautiful quilt but I don't remember ever seeing it
|
I think you should be able to use graph paper to figure out each block. Find out how big you want it and draw in the lines for the blocks. Then fill in each block with your own drawings as suggested by ghostrider. Have fun!
|
Hopefully someone on the board will remember the name. Good luck.
|
remember you can always take the quilt itself to a copier and copy each piece. If you are doing folded under applique, just add a tad to each piece of fabric.

Jean Ray Laury died in 2011, a great loss to the quilting and art world.
|
Lots of great suggestions. She will have to use the pictures if she decides to copy it as she has no access to the quilt itself. She is very talented at copying things she see so if she decides to make a go at it then her picture is the way to go.
Thanks everyone. She loved all the compliments on her quilt too. |
