    I love this red and white quilt and have not been able to find a pattern.
    Any help or know where a pattern can be found??

    Would like to make it in Queensize for my bed.

    I will probably need to swap fabrics with board members that have red in their stash. I want a big variety.

    Thanks :-D :-D :-D :-D

    looks like bowtie block in different sizes and turned different ways. I'll bet you can figure it out. just work with 2.5 and 4.5 blocks on graph paper.


    oops, just read the title, I guess you already knew that ;-)

    beautiful quilt, I sure hope you find the pattern

    maybe someone with EQ (Electric Quilt) could help you design it

    Do you know how to do drafting of patterns? You would need to draft the patterns for 2 different size bow tie blocks, and then you could use the picture to help you figure out how many blocks of each size to make, and also use the picture as a guide to laying the bowtie blocks out. It really wouldn't be too hard, just some basic quilting math skills, lots of cutting and sewing.
    Maybe make just a block or 2 in each size to get started and to make sure your math is correct, and then you could get busy making lots of bowties.
