I bought the "Basket Lattice" pattern at a booth at the Paducah Quilt show this year - they had one made up on the wall - all done in batiks - but, frankly, the directions are very confusing to me - and was hoping that a local quilter would help me figure it out, whenever she has time.

I really like that. good job
|
That is wonderful. Did you actually weave the strips? Bookmarking this one!
|
Oh, wow, that is beautiful!
|
Very impressive. It looks quite tedious to do so I don't know if I would have the patience you have.

:oops: Sorry about the "dumb" question: Does a jelly roll always have the same number of strips? Bottom line is: how many strips do I need for this quilt top? |
I love it!
|

As far as I know the jelly rolls you buy at quilt stores all have 40 strips. The ones at Joann's don't. You need 40 jelly roll strips to make this quilt. |
Beautiful job
Have a Blessed day Ellen |

Very, very pretty! Great job!

Would like to know the name of the pattern and where it is available it would be great for all my florals.Would be so delighted to do this quilt.

Here's a direct link to the designer's website. It basically just shows the fron and back of the pattern diredtions. Don't know where you can buy it, but I'm sure you could contact her directly.
http://www.sheripapedesigns.com/ I think this quilt be be gorgeous in florals, with any kind of a background fabric you wanted--black, white, pink, green--don't think it really matters! |
