Nice to have friends on the west coast at this hour - I knew one of them would have the magazine.

It's the first method I outlined above - made with triangles.

The block is called Mermaid Blossoms, block #492.

I think it's strips cut into triangles. I've done a quilt that was made like this. It really just depends on where you place the fabrics and what width the strips are.

This pattern is similar to one we have done by three guys from arizona. sew your strips together I believe there are five in a row or however many you might like we used 2.5" strips and i think we used 5 press and then measure. cut your strips to make a square you will get 4 squares from one strip lay them out one block horizonally and one uo and down. sew around all four sides then cut from corner to corner be careful how you cut it then open it up and you will have 2 sets of blocks match them how ever you might like I will try to attach a picture. or better yet let me email you direct

Hi Merry,
Please do send all you can to me on how to make this quilt. I'm a novice and pretty much need a pattern to get started.
I do so appreciate your kind assistance and will pay for a pattern. My email is:[email protected]

Thank you, thank you!

Tina I just printed out a free pattern this week that looks like this. The name is "To the Point", and I found it at Kaelly Studio.com, it is an interactive pattern/video, but the print out for the pattern is free. The pattern that I printed out is mady with half square triangles, and the cutting and amt. of fabric is listed. You might need some help with this since you said you were a novice, but then you might just be able to whiz right through it. You might go to this site and see if this in what you are looking for. Yes the spelling kaelly is correct.
