Thanks or sharing your work with all of us quilting sisters here on the board. We love you dear lady.
    I also searched for Journey to Arkansas and found nothing. I did find the pattern called Arkansas Crossroads and I think that's what this is. It is at www.bellaonline.com/articles/art23986.asp
    But the pattern calls for 3 1/2" small squares and 6 1/2" for the white squares. But I have read some threads on Arkansas Crossroads and it sounds like some people use a jelly roll for the small squares which would mean they are 2 1/2" squares. Then what size would the large white square be? Anyone know? I want to make one of these quilts and am wondering if it would look best made with 2 1/2" or 3 1/2" small squares? Any opinions? Charisma, do you remember at all what size the small squares were on the one you quilted?

    Good story but don't think I'd recognize you if I saw you. Your new friend is very observant.

    I agree. I'm impressed that she recognized you from the board, that is really cool!
