Does anyone know where I can get the pattern Strolling the Block 2002. HGTV doesn't have it anymore. I guess I could look at the picture and figure it out. Just wondering.
Thanks., :D http://www.craftsy.com/project/view/...the-block/5130 |
So Cute, and adorable!

That pattern was one of the first that I copied even before I had a computer. Haven't made it yet, but it's still on my list of quilts to make. Thanks for reminding me. Hope I can find it when I need to. lol
