Patterns on my website

Hello all



Several of you asked about the BOM patterns from the last two years that I did that are shown on my web site. Well, here is the link.

I made another page and posted the patterns for each one BOM. I hope they show up okay. You might have to save them and then place or open them in another program to enlarge them a bit for readability. The best images were just way too big to post for anyone to download. Sorry about the black smudges along the sides of the images. My scanner "senses" the edge of the document and without me making black marks on the pages, some of the words were being cut off. I am questioning myself the page for December 3 on the



2003 patterns. It is a page of the actual templates and I don't think they are going to print the correct size. I will print at work tomorrow and test them and let you know.

BOM 2002 directions never included a fabric list but the colors were a cream on cream, pinkish, maroon, green print, blue and a paisley print. BOM 2003 the first page included a fabric list.



I also included the directions that I use to make flying geese. For me at least, these are the easiest directions yet, so that I get nice even shapes. There is one mistake in my description though. You end up with four units, not two. If I choose to cut off the under corners I sew them and then have half-square triangles and no wasted fabric.



If you need or want hard copies, let me know and I am sure that we can work something out.

P.S. Kathy, I hear you loud and clear on the husband in the hospital so far away. A year ago this week I got a call from my guy on Friday morning and by Sunday morning I had arranged sub plans, taken care of things around the house and made arrangements and travelled all the way from Anchorage to Portland, Maine. One week later, minus a gallbladder, and a wee bit of pancreatitis still lingering, we were at least on our way home. What a week. Hang in there. I know it will all be better before you know it.


I've had to save for later 'looking', Steve. Sorry. (Computer has got an attack of the 'slows' and I have a journey to start pretty soon). I'll have a look when I get home. Thanks very much for doing this. It is a great idea all round. . In message , steve writes

Thanks for the link -- I love your quilts. You've got a great eye for design and I like the "sense of movement" so many of your quilts have. Very nice. :)

You have a lot of applique quilts on your site. Are any of the patterns your own designs? Debra in VA See my quilts at
