    I found some old roly poly squares that I did when my children were babies and never completed. Now that great grandbabies have joined the family, I would like to complete the quilt. Does anyone have access to any of the animal patterns, I have five finished and would like one more. :?:

    They are circus animals designed by Ruby McKim in the 20's and 30's. I did the ones I have in redwork. The animals tails and bodies form a circle. If I can't find the patterns, I have decided to copy one I have already finished and have two alike. Thanks for your response :D

    Here's what a google search turned up. Is this what you are looking for?

    I believe I just saw the roly poly blocks on an old Alex Anderson Simply Quilts program I recorded some years ago. Perhaps checking her website on HGTV might help.
