quilt info
thank you all for your kind words about my most recent quilt -- and the reminder that those pictures can be clicked on for a better look! i always forget about that and of course we all like to meet them "up close and personal."
my quilt was made using the book "strip clubbing", the name of the pattern is "amazing grace." of course it is easily identifiable as being a delectable mountains variation, and i've also made a similar one that was named "crazy eights." the one thing they did was to make a fabric choice so that the pinwheel was predominant in the design. it was a very easy quilt using strips that i purchased from connecting threads. there were also many gold strips in the set, but i chose to remove those and instead use a background fabric that was similar in color. they had already created the pallette so i knew it would look good ;)
glad to see the BB more active these days. hopefully it will continue.

I really like your quilt infact, well enough that I am going to try and find the book. Nice that we can get a closer look at it.
It is really wonderful to know that the posters are still out there and still checking in on occasion. Marcik

marcik,
the book is from a quilt shop in el cajon, ca, their website is http://cozyquilt.com/. go right to the book at http://cozyquilt.com/Aspx/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=466 and you can see all of the quilts that are in the book with the click of a button.
it's been out for over a year now, matter of fact they have a second one that was released in april. if you can't find it elsewhere, i'm sure you can order it online at their website.
