Where did you get your patterns from?

Hi, I got the patterns from "Celtic Quilt Designs II" The Children of Lir, by Philomena Durcan. There are lots of different designs in the book to copy - great value for money. There is a quilt design in the book made from some of the templates, and that is what has inspired me to do my quilt. Hope you manage to get a copy. I got mine off Amazon. Happy quilting.
Regards
Sharon.

I love Celtic but it takes patience. Your work is beautiful.

Wow - do you have any examples I could look at?

Oh wow - I really really really like these. Love the design (probably because I have Irish blood in me) and also love batiks. Two of my favourites. Well done.

Just so pretty. Wish I had that in my time to do list..With Christmas around the corner, and newborn babies to finish quilting, a quilt challenge due in January, I just don't have any extra time to do this. But your pictures are an inspiration. Just beautiful.

Beautiful blocks. Celtic is fun. Have around 50 designs on paper and only one of them stitched. One of these days will get back to that.

Celtic designs are so beautiful. Will have give them a try sometime down the road. Every time I come to the board, I find a new idea I want to try. Great job.
