Celtic patterns

I have pieced and quilted a Blooming Nine Patch ( pictured in my Album) Its the purple coloured one. I made the mistake of quilting all around the centre pale part as I did nt have the right thread colour. Now it is too puffy to quilt and puckers, so I have decided to applique a new centre and would like to do a Celtic knot with bias on it.Does anyone have a link for any free Celtic designs that I could maybe adapt to fit!


You could try my old favourite, Estelle - Google/Images! I just had a quick look, before posting - and there are some beauties on the first page - not too difficult, some of them.

Though perhaps someone will have a better, quilty place for you. . In message , Estelle Gallagher writes

hey Estelle, heres a couple/few sites that might be useful in your search. shame about the puckers and puffy's. i'm sure you'll fix that beauty so no one will be the wiser. cant wait to see the finished design.

There is a pretty Celtic block on this block of the month, but only until the end of March!
