Very eye-catching idea

Pat, is there any chance you took photos? I'm trying to see this in my head and I'm having a hard time. And it sounds lovely. How wonderful to see such talent.

This meaning of "quadrant" is a quarter of a circle. So imagine a slice of circle with the round edge away from the quilt.

Clear as mud?

So sorry Sunny, I didn't take my camera.

The blocks were something like log cabin, but not quite. So, imagine a log cabin quilt, with blocks set on point. Instead of filling the triangular spaces with setting *triangles*, and squaring off the corners with triangles, the lady had made quadrants of a circle (which have the required right angled triangle as the bit attached to the quilt). This left the quarter circles standing proud of the quilt edge. These were left and bound in the scalloped way (to inside points). . In message , Sunny writes

No, she did bind it in the 'difficult' way >g< It was pretty neat though. I think I would have done it with a facing. . In message , Roberta writes

Linda Franz's first quilt was a Dear Jane set on point, with a quarter- circle scalloped border. She had a tutorial on doing the binding which was shared with the Dear jane mailing list, and might be on her website.

Oh, how very pretty - lovely. I wonder if that is where my local lady got her idea from? Or, it could be one of those occasions where two people had the same idea. The one I saw had larger blocks, and so the scallops were larger; but that will give Sunny the idea of the one I saw. (The corner curves were also different in the one I saw.) .

I really like that. Thanks for posting. Gen

Well, LOL. Yes, Roberta. We people are crazy. Polly

"Roberta" What is this with "you people"? Don't you mean "we people"?
