I saw this pattern and fell in love with it. Got it yesterday. The directions are a bit hard to follow. I had to rewrite them one step at a time. But the fabric is to die for!
wow!
I join one of the 432 Sharon Harpers. Wow from me too. Or me only. Whatever. That is gorgeous. Polly
Oh wow, Linda what an awesome pattern! What fun!
Wow! Are the pieces all triangles? Got triangles on the brain here -- that's the chapter I'm teaching in Geometry these days!

Wow! I want one of those, too!
Amazing coincidence - that pattern was the cover pattern on December's British Patchwork & Quilting! . In message , Witchy Stitcher writes
They are, but it is paper pieced in 16x16 half square blocks. The blocks are divided into sections 1.5 to 3" wide. That's what accounts for the curved look effect. The pattern appears to be a home done pattern that either Hancocks or the fabric company must have purchased. It is simply printed off the computer. It must be from the UK because the words have British spellings. I've also never seen that fabric line before, but it is wonderful - lovely colors and hand. It's called Fabric Freedom.

I will tell you that for the amount and quality of fabric, it is certainly worth it. I can't stop fondling it! I won't get to make it for a while. I have to finish 2 baby quilts, plus the one I have been working on for my hubby, which was for our anniversary in Feb. before I start this one.
L>Wow! I want one of those, too!
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTT??????
Are you telling me for $24.98 you got all the fabric AND the instrucitons?????????? even with the conversion rate that's a 54" quilt for less than $40. OMG - what great value!!!!
And here I was thinking you'd only gotten the pattern - which would have been worth it too!
Oh my stars....I have to lie down......
its shameful aint it!! when downunder get charged that much for one metre of good quality fabric. waving the smelling salts over your nose!!! jeanne
This seems to be quite a bargain, even here. There are a 26 pieces of smaller pieces -smaller than fat 1/8s, and 2 meters of black fabric. I expected the fabric to be a low quality, but it isn't.
L>its shameful aint it!!
Linda - you're much braver than I am tackling something like that.... it's beautiful, but waaaay beyond MY skills! Please post pics when you're done.... and let us know if it was as complicated as it looks.
