Here is a book where you can find the pattern for the cube quilt.

The other two designs are my own.
I am glad you like them! I just finished the quilting on one of them.

Absolutely gorgeous quilts. Must tackle a cube quilt someday. Also, love the bags on your website.

Thank you, Vat, for your tips. I used jelly rolls so the strips were already cut. Next time, I will use yardage, starch it and then cut strips lengthwise. I pressed so carefully the blocks still they distorted a lot. Then I struggled to keep the top flat so I don't have too many sharp points. Can't wait to quilt it.
