Dont know the name, but it sure is a beauty!
|
Don't know block name, but the quilt is beautiful.
Are you girls have fun? |
Kind of looks like a "Lazy Daisy" adaptation...probably has another name. That is the first thing I thought of. Pretty quilt!
|
I don't know but I like it.
|
This isn't my photo. I found it on the web and I love the block/pattern. I've seen this pattern twice and each time I love it more so I thought I would ask here to see if anyone knows.
Thanks for any help! |
I don't know but I love it!
|
I'm with the others I don't know the name of the pattern but it is beautiful :)
|
I'm sure it's some type of Kaleidoscope but I can't seem to wrap my head around it. It almost looks paperpieced.
All I know is that I love it and want/need it! Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated! |
I don't know the name of the block, but it would be super easy to make it paper pieced, even if that particular one wasn't done as such.

I think I've seen it before but don't know the name. I think if you study the block you could probably make your own pattern. Maybe cut a square and start folding until you have it. It may take more than one attempt. I have figured out blocks from pics this way.

Looks like a variation (it's rays are wider) of the Endless Chain block. http://www.quilterscache.com/E/EndlessChainBlock.html
|
could it be pin wheels???
|
It sure is pretty!!
|
could it be the endless chain from quilterscache except using the pattern fabric where that site has the background color
|
I would get a plain piece of paper,12 inch square,draw the pattern on the paper.I would go down 1 1/2 inches down,over all sides.Connie in CO

You have to play with the lines until you get what you want.It would make a neat Paper pieced block.I forgot,i see you have to make another park besides the 1 1/2 mark.I see from the picture the squares are pretty big. |

Using the QuiltersCache pattern where 1, 3 and 5 are solid colors and 2 and 4 are patterned....
If you are going to paper piece and use a solid color (either white or black), that solid color would need 100 small blocks. If you cut the small blocks out and cut on the lines that would be covered with the colored fabric, I am calculating the following at 7 1/2 inch blocks to allow for some leeway when paper piecing: 40 inch wide fabric divided by 7 1/2 = 5 blocks per strip with a 2 1/2 inch left over... 100 blocks divided by 5 per strip = 20 strips at 7 1/2 inches wide each....or 150 inches/36 inches = 4.16666 yards Depending on how wide you want the colored pieces to be, you can just cut strips that size and there would be little paper piecing waste. Part of that calculation will depend on how many colors you decide to use and whether you want the strips to be even as in QC or angled as in the first picture above. From the size of the original quilterscache pattern which is even, I would use 1 1/2 inch strips by 7 inches....and you need two per small block -- for a total of 200.... Calculating cutting the strips either way (1 1/2 wide or 7 wide), I get either 8 strips at 7 inches wide (pieces per strip = 26) for 56 inches needed OR 40 strips at 1 1/2 inches wide (pieces per strip = 5) for 60 inches needed. This assumes you use the same color all the way through. Now if you change the width/angle of the colored pieces, all bets are off LOL! But I would still cut the basic white/black the same way....Of course you waste a bit more.....but to me that is the easy way to cut the pieces quickly. Hope this makes sense! rr |

It does look very similar to the Endless Chain but the colors on it are much narrower than the picture that cookiej36 shows.
I'm attaching a chart for figuring out yardages that I got off some site, don't remember which one though. Hope it helps someone. |
somehow this post was posted in 2 places, I have the pattern in a magizine if you are intrested.
