Hi,
I'm trying to find some information about a quilt i saw in an episode that screened recently in Australia. I'm looking for the quiltmakers name, or even a link to the episode. The quilt maker was a gentleman who made the block design by using shapes that represented letters of the alphabet. The shapes were drawn in a square at different degrees of angles to form the letters. The example quilt they demonstrated making used Alex's name. Its a very vague description, but I'm hoping someone recognises it and can point me in the right direction. thank you. |

I have no idea which one you are talking about, but if you have plenty of time you may find it on this list.Click here: Shows A - Z : Simply Quilts : Simply Quilts : Home & Garden Television
I know there is a thousand series, couldn't find it on the web site so don't know where they went. But you may be able to find them all if I point you in the right direction. Hope this helps Rita |

I think I seen that episode. Did he also show his method of foundation piecing. I think he used a system that taking only 28 diffent shapes, he made thousands of diffent blocks. If that is the one I might have it saved on my DVR at home I'll check this evening.

Fons and Porter also showed alphabet letters that did on graph paper on a episode of Simply Quilts. They also spell out Alex. Think they paper pieced them.
I know that John Flynn did something similar on SQ. Think one that he showed was a sort of T shape that he tessalated. Alex's site has a real good master list. www.alexandersonquilts.com Click on program guide and then master list. Good luck in finding the episode that you are seeking.
