I also want to thank you for posting. I've never seen the design either but I followed the link to the blog and absolutely fell in love with another quilt in the book called "Glitter", also made with tri-recs. What a fabulous scrap buster it would be. Ugh, just what I need another quilt to add to the bucket list. LOL
Here is a direct link to the blog if anyone wants to go look. http://sewtakeahike.typepad.com/sewt...r-reviews.html |
I feel a book purchase in my future:) Thanks for sharing.

I wasn't familiar with Jen Kingwell, but a little poking around on Amazon revealed that she is also the author of the Gypsy Wife Quilt and quite a few other patterns and books. She makes wonderful scrappy quilts.

Jenny Doan has a tutorial on the flutterby quilt pattern.

I checked out the book from the library, so I know the pattern. I was just trying to remember where I'd seen it before so I asked you all. I would swear that it's in one of my circa 90's books. It's a secondary design on a kaliedoscope or something. I just can't find it.
Yes, her lovely patterns are just that, LOVELY. One thing is I'd probably use the tri-recs tool to do her long rectangles. She has a weird method that requires trimming a half inch from each side! Yikes. I'm glad I may have sold a few of her books to you all ;-). It's nice to (unintentionally) promote someone who does great work. |

There is an older pattern called Periwinkle Star that looks a little like it. Maybe that is what you were thinking of. It came to mind when I saw the quilt you posted. https://www.pinterest.com/pinkeeper/periwinkle-pattern
