himnherr - Nice quilt!
It looks like this pattern is alternating one piece blocks with HST blocks (4 to make a block) that are rotated. I'm looking for a quick design to sew up for a gift and this just might be it Thanks for showing

Great Pattern!
I have made this quilt ... (don't know if I can upload a photo). The instructions were easy to follow. I took a class at my local guild and we each brought a design wall to layout out our blocks. It was amazing how different each quilt looked. Many members took a photo of their quilt block layout before trying another layout so it would be easier to decide which one they liked best and had a diagram to put it back together.
Have fun!
Have fun!

Well, don't I feel like a ninnie! After reading all the posts, I thought a walkabout was a quilt you took along with you to work on in stages or sections - kinda like Bonnie Hunter's hexie quilt that she has been doing for about 4 years. The pics are all gorgeous quilts! Guess I learned something today. Happy quilting, All!! Kathy

By "walk about" I thought she meant a quilt idea that is easy to take with you for hand work. My sister does hand piecing and she always has what she calls her "traveling quilt" because it goes with her in the car, to boring meetings etc. She's made some beauties! Good luck finding your walk about.
