hazeljane, I want to say a big thank you because I bought about 200 4" squares last year, nearly all are 1930's repro and everytime I look at them I never know what to do with them. Having just seen your beautiful quilt I now know how to use them, so, I will bookmark this page for future reference. Thanks once again.

Where can we get old copies of magazines? I love this pattern. Searched on their website for archived issues; but if it's there, I never found it. Or does anyone have an issue they would sell or loan?

Last week, I finally quilted her and put her on the bed.

That's such a beautiful scrappy quilt. They are my favorite.
