I have the pattern but I need to make some corrections that I've written on a printed copy. I don't want to sell them yet but I'll give it away.

My avatar is one I am getting the fabric together for. The blocks aren't my design and it is originally in bright batiks. I am using CW fabric and I added the border and the hearts in the centers.

LOL!! It does look like grandma's linens. That's what I had in mind when I saw the fabric and the colors.[/quote]

You nailed it too. It's just beautiful!!

Please put me down for a purchase of both designs-they are gorgeous-you have an untapped market out here. Love the hearts, too.

I loved the picture on your avatar - but it is beautiful in person. The borders make it! Congratulations - you did a wonderful job!

The hankie thing gives me an idea... I have a collection of hankies that were my grandmother's, some new ones, and about 50 vintage ones that I bought on eBay. I bet some of them would look great reproduced as full sized quilts.

I have an adorable child's hankie with a kitten in a nightgown carrying a candle in a holder with a duckie. How cute would that be as a baby quilt?
