Thanks Tuesay! That is the same pattern that my Aunt taught me, only thing is I don't know if I remember the pattern anymore, I am sure I don't because it's been a couple of years now. I stopped knitting to start quilting and have been quilting ever since.

You did a good job on those, very consistent. I will have to get the pattern from my Aunt again sometime. Thank You Tuesay.

It gets expensive if you have to send the quilts out to be quilted (not counting the waiting list). I don't want, or really have the money to spend to have my quilts quilted and my machine has a hard time with the big quilts, so I quilt as I go and put the blocks together afterwards. This way I can use my fancy stitches and if I don't like the stitch after I get started can change for the next block.

*LOL*. Elly.. I know exactly what you mean. When I first learned how to knit, I would drop stitches like there was no tomorrow...

You're welcome. :-) Here's the pattern for ya.. Someone was kind enough to put it on the net. This is the one I learned from my Grandma.. and funny enough it's called Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloth.
