Isn't it great to see your own pattern made by someone else? It's a very versatile design, because it looks so different with that color arrangement.

How very cool both quilts are! And it's quite a complement when someone uses your pattern. I love the border on your quilt.

That's a great way to explain it, Twosteps!

Same pattern, but so different.

Meme, did you do the sunbonnet design? that is stunning!

• • • I suppose it's kind of like a Bento Box, but not exactly.

When I need a quick quilt, this is the one I go to. So, you know I had to make it in black and white. Getting those four patches in the right direction really make a difference.

It's definately a keeper. So You can either give us a tutorial for a Friday night! or make and sell the pattern. Foot tapping sound.......

What a compliment to your design talent! I can see a lot of possibilities in that block and it should be published. Of course, you'll have to make several more samples with the different design layoutsSmile

That's VERY COOL!!! You are sooo creative! What a compliment you were given by IowaLisa in making that pattern for her son. Your little Tweety Bird wings must be flapping a warp speed! Wink

• • • Nicki, are his wings still moving? For some reason they don't on my screen. I might have to update my java script.

Hmmm, a PJ Party... I'll have to think about that.

He's flapping, all right, Jean.

That quilt looks sorta familiar. Is there a reason?

I have loved that pattern since you first designed it. I would certainly pay for it.

Love seeing it next to your color choices!! always fun to see them in different layouts side by side!!!! My son LOVES his quilt.... i made my strips wider than Jay did.. as it was, this quilt took me so long to finish, even though it was a fairly simple design and strip pieced Smile and this quilt is the largest I have machine quilted on my domestic machine... 90"x70"!!!

Thanks J for letting me use your pattern to make this great quilt for my son!! and when I see the pics online.. the four patch blocks almost look like race cars and the 4 black squares are the tires!! and the 'L's are his roadways Smile funny how pictures make things look different Smile
