    I know I have a book that led me to this, but I can't lay my hands on it at this point. It's basically a log cabin design, worked in individual squares. You construct the log cabin from both sides at the same time while sandwiching small pieces of batting between. I did find a blog called Celtic Knots that shows an excellent tutorial, that will probably make this a lot more easy to understand - http://cathicrafts.wordpress.com/200...uilt-tutorial/
    I used warm and natural cotton needled batting in between my stitiching and it worked up wonderfully. I didn't have to worry about catching my batting in the seams since there was no room to shift. I also chose to use the same fabric all-over on the back so I wouldn't drive myself crazy trying to follow a pattern on both sides. The log cabin pattern on the back makes enough texture to be interesting.
    Hope this answers for bittersweet as well...
    Thanks for your reply. I am fascinated with the fabric stuffing appriach. I could not find from the link how to sew the blocks together. Do I understand correctly that the batting is not in the seams? If you come across the book that led you down this path, please send me the title.

    I will keep looking and will pm as soon as I find the book that led me to this quilt. And I may have said that wrong about the batting. It is caught in one seam, when you add the next row, just not in both. (Does that make sense?) It isn't however caught on either side in the channels where the blocks are put together, but it's tight and doesn't shift. The link I added shows them using what looks like a thin poly batting and it presses down VERY flat. I love using the warm and natural needled batting, it's soft and keeps it's shape. This helps me use up my bits and pieces, too.

    Thanks again. I would really love to try this. I think I understand why the bating is caught in one side. Is the book by any chance called Block by Block? I am one of those people who has to have the concept in my mind before I tackle it. We do charity quilting in my guild and it would be great to skip the quilting part. Your quilt is one of the best qayg I have seen.
