Sounds like someone was having a difficult time with a pattern and felt as if her project was*cursed*...I don't think any particular pattern has a supposed*curse*...its just some times many of us get into a project that feels cursed.

Jennifer Chiaverini talks about the story of the Wandering Foot quilt in one of her early books - myth here: http://nancycabotsewalong.blogspot.c...ilt-block.html

WOW, never heard of any of these curses. I have done at least 6 Lone or Broken star quilts. You really have to have accuracy and pressing down to perfection otherwise you can end up with a wonky star.

Thanks for all that have answered! And yes I have done several that just about made me curse! LOL (Job's Trouble being one of them! LOL) Seems like (not really sure....) something about only having one of the Lone Star quilt...?? It is terrible to hear something and later can not remember how it went! LOL So thanks to those who have answered.
