    Well you are getting lots of help and advice here so I just want to wish you luck with this quilt and please post some pictures during the process and the completed quilt as well. What frame and machine will you be using for this? I'm totally amazed at wholecloth quilting! Good Luck!

It was published by That Patchwork Place. When I make it, I am going to duplicate at least 4 blocks to make it longer and perhaps 4 more to make it wider as the finished quilt in this pattern is only 86" square. Hope this helps you in your search.

    I did see a beautiful wholecloth bed cover at Dillard's dept store some time back. I remember it because I loved it. It's price was $350.00. It had hugh squares and rectangles (maybe 25 x 25 and 20 by 40). All were different shades of very light beiges and taupes and placed randomly. If there was any pattern it too was very light and barely noticeable. The quilting was glorious and that was truely the star of this quilt.

    I used this book 5 years ago on page 10 there is strip piecing using all beige fabric, with di tints of beige, more like strip piecing. I think this is what your daughter wants. I actually made the quilt because of the muted back ground. http://www.amazon.com/Super-Simple-S.../dp/1880972522 page 10 Mondriah is the name of the quilt.

    My sister has the quilt now. I tried to send you a photo, did work.

    And everyone is right, it is not a wholecloth, but a pieced cloth made to look whole

    BTW I just uploaded an image of the quilt Mondrian (upside down) that is in the book. The raw quilt applique you could not put on. Hope this helps.

    If you want to correspond with me privately I will give you some suggestions for this project. It should be easy for you to do with existing paper designs and quilting stencils.
