Oh! No activity!
Well... guess I'll just go pout in a corner...sniff, sniff.
It's too pretty of a day to whimper, actually!

Don't pout ...quilt ...I have all those mags so already like them...but I did click on a couple and found a couple corrections posted for the patterns in the magazine. McCalls was one of them.

I am trying very hard not to buy anymore magazines. But I do hope you get a lot of response to your post. Have a few projects for fall that I might not get made again this fall. I'm bad. Do admire those of you who do get a lot done.

I'll check McCalls for the corrections... I think it was the Decoupage and Harvest Moon that I really liked.

I'm on a road-trip w/DH today & tomorrow, which means walking around the stores for me. I thumbed through a few magazines, but it seemed that a lot of titles were missing. I'm in the process of collecting pumpkin patterns so that I can do a big quilt like my neighbor did. She mixed in applique pumpkins with Flannels! - I've set aside all my Fall magazines from way back... I seem to like Fall patterns more than I did 10-years ago!!

... poor internet connection - I'll have to come back tonight. Have a Good Sewing Day!

OOPS!!! The mistake was not in the patterns you posted.

It was in the Bonus Patterns in the Nov./Dec. 2011 Issue, Xmas one, Bows and Boughs,this one..

http://www.mccallsquilting.com...Bows_and_Boughs?bc=c

Them's some neat patterns, Jes.

That Twizzler would surely make you sit up and take notice!!!!

TFS

TcMay - I'm happy that you mentioned the corrections - I'm pretty sure that I downloaded that Xmas pattern!



The Bird on a Fence pattern is really cute - they are offering the Bird Block as a web bonus ( I wrote this down as a table-runner project):
http://www.mccallsquilting.com...d_Wall_Quilt_Pattern


Paus, The Twizzler pattern was Numero Uno on my list!

Quick Quilts was not on the shelf, so I just took a peek on-line (Autumn in our Kitchen is pretty):
http://www.mccallsquilting.com...x.html?current_issue

jessicasews,I love my magazines too! I especially love Quilts and More.Scrap Lab feature. This time,it missed the mark,I think it was the fabric they used. That purple just died on that page,and then to put the pictures of Joanna and Camille,who are at the whole other end of the color spectrum,looked ridicoulous to me! The patterns were so much the same, but the little sewing pouch was darling but that fabric was hard to take.Just did not photograph well.I love Am Patchwork and
Quilting.Can you imaginehow hard it is to please so many different people?

This one, BonnieN? Yes, the fabrics/pattern is hard on the eyes.
http://www.allpeoplequilt.com/...s-fall-2012_ss2.html


Here's a Cutie! I'm going to write this one down as a pattern for a handbag instead of a pillow.
http://www.allpeoplequilt.com/...umpkin-pillow_1.html

If anyone has a copy of the American Patchwork & Quilting April 2009 - would you check and see if this quilt pattern is in it?

This twin-sized quilt is shared on the American Patchwork & Quilting Sew & Tell, the quilter said it was based on the quilt on Page 80. After I posted a question as to which year (2009 or 2010), I noticed that the comments began in 2009.
It's pretty!

I will check to see if I have that ,I tear out what I like,put them in plastic sleeves in a notebook. I wil check..

Yes,that is the purple project!!!

this is an older Scrap lab project,with a tablerunner too,that I am working on now.

http://figtreequilts.typepad.c...quilts-and-more.html doenloadable at www.allpeoplequilt.com They show a white pumpkin for some reason too...

This Scrap Lab project is on my to-do list with darker fabrics (a gold/burnt orange piece and a paisley print): http://www.allpeoplequilt.com/...-and-pumpkins_1.html
(love those pumpkins as centerpieces)

Thank you for checking on the pattern! I looked at that quilt several times. It looks like every-other block is 'framed'.

jessicasews,i hate to tell you,I have had no luck finding that issue you want. But,I will keep looking,surely it must be someplace!! Just looking at it,I think I could wing it pretty easily. I will keep looking.I know how it is looking for something special!!

Thank you for checking, BonnieN!
I've gone through the website a few times and have a feeling that I'm not searching in the correct year. Maybe the pattern(and quilter's name) will pop up in a group of patterns there, it might have been a bigger quilt pattern and this poster made a twin size from it... The pattern looks like every-other block has a frame in it - that's doable!

Wow... there's beautiful magazines out right now!

This is a first... someone posted a preview for the magazine, Quilter's World Scrap Sensations!
These are just some of the patterns included:
* Crazy Eights by Ruth Swasey
* Dancing Colors by Connie Rand
* Triangle Beginning by Phyllis Dobbs
* Scrap Patch Hearts
* Cartwheel Clowns by Judith Sandstrom
* Autumn Ties Table Mats by Connie Kauffman (this is a cute bow tie pattern that many quilters here have 'played' with!)
* Green Tea Place Mats
* Bottle Wraps
* Coffee Cup Cozy by Stephanie Timm Smith

http://www.quiltersworld.com/featured_pattern.php

Thank you jessica! I love fall colors and the links you shared give me so many ideas!
I have limited my magazine buying also but will look for a couple you listed.

Malou, I hope you are well... I've been thinking about you! The cost of magazines have crept up and I rarely see them not on 10% sale, so I can't just pick up a magazine on a whim - after looking through the ones that I've seen (I haven't listed them all..), I think there are 2 that would be 'keepers'. It just 'figures' that one of them $9.99... groan!

I'm bookmarking a lot of web pages on these magazine sites! Inspiration

jessica, I'm good... have thought about you too! I was at the COF in Branson, having the best time, and now have to use what I bought at a quilt store there! Went a little crazy!
Have to go to WalMart tomorrow so will look for a couple of the magazines. Glad you gave us clues to some good ones!

jessicasews, take a close look at that picture of the quilt that lady posted that you love, I think it says 2008! That label!!!and,her granddaughter's name is Ashlynn,so that may not even be the correct name of this pattern! Oh,the frustration! but,breaking down this pattern it is alternating framed block with a plain square,with a scalloped border..think Eleanor Burns scalloped ruler,it really works,directions tells you all you need to know.so,if you decide what size block you want, you could easily use a charm pack with a jelly roll to be real easy. Or the sizes for a place to start,and there you go!! Someone with EQ probably could map it out better,but I think you could do this just fine.Somehow,I think this is a much older pattern if her label is what it reads to me. There is a place on Am Patchwork site that has patterns to download that were real popular,I looked at them all,it is not there. I think you could manage this just fine.

I think it is called Dandelion Wishes and in the April 2008 Issue, I found a pdf while searching the image...Anyone know what the front cover of this magazine looks like.I tried to find it online but NADA and it would make my search faster in my mags.

http://quiltshoptipsfromnancy....rom-nancy-7.8.09.pdf

Go down to Item # 91,you have to look hard but I'm pretty sure it is the same with a scalloped border.

You ladies are fabulous! So many minds and results! Jessicasews, we will get this pattern for you!! I just love a good search! this board is wonderful! Everyone jumps in to help, and somehow,someplace,you get your answer! I hope she finds her pattern so she can make this.

May, I'm sure you are right! That is Dandelion Wishes, April 2008. In the Ashlynn quilt those little corner squares of the frame were red not white in the original. Looks like a fairly straightforward design but sooo pretty.
Joan

Thank you all, you are Fabulous! *smiles*
I agree! Dandelion Wishes is the pattern! THANK YOU!


Last night I was looking up some patterns that were from magazine ads and found this...
Check out Folk Hearts by Sara Trail: http://www.fabri-quilt.com/patterns/
Somewhat similar! I think I'll just pick a block size and 'go for it', now that we have a quilt name to give credit to the designer.

Woodblock by Ro Gregg was the pattern that lead me to the site... pretty quilt for men.



Here's a Dandelion!

I'm drooling over all the pretty quilt cover pictures (in TcMay's link).
It's like a 'quilt parade'! There's a couple quilts that look familiar (I might have a few American Patchwork magazines)!



I looked up Dandelion Wishes and found the quilt (made) on several sites! Happily, I found this blog posted that names the designer... Designed by Joanna Figueroa, pieced by Wilma Lawrence and Joanna Figueroa and quilted by Diana Johnson.
It's great to read, "it was one of our all time best selling kits".

What a happy ending!! I just adore Joanna too,anything Fig Tree does it for me. Beautiful quilt all around!!!

*smiling*

You know what's funny... last week I made a Bookmark Folder for Fig Tree blog posts!
I 'liked' her Facebook page too!

This isn't Fall, but it's worth sharing (one of Joanna Figueroa's blog posts). I loved the kitchen curtains and tabletopper.
http://figtreequilts.typepad.c...strawberry-sale.html


Malou... Have fun shopping!!!

I check out the Fig Tree blogspot often myself. Always have liked it.
Did you all see that the Dandelion Wishes quilt on the fatquarter shop blog had the last bid at $1000?!! I do like that pattern and the fabric used to make that quilt.
Glad the mystery was solved jessica! Bonnie was right... ask on here and you will get the answer! There are some wonderful detectives who help us out on this MB.
Most of the shopping was to put some food in the refrig & cupboards after COF! I did pick up a magazine too!

After you mentioned the bid, I looked through the comments... Yaay for that!
Wonderful for Joanna to offer the quilt for Haiti!!


Some more magazines out on the shelves:

* Sunflower Fields by Toby Lischko
* Smokey Pink by Sue Harvey and Sandy Boobar
http://www.thequiltermag.com/issues/current.shtml

Adding a photo that my son sent me as a text... very funny!
I see he took his girlfriend past the quilts at the Fair... 10-points for him!

"dandelion wishes" is in the AP&Q April 2008 issue. "Scattered applique flowers dance across a pieced field of fabric for a throw that beckons spring."

Thank you Ivy

Thank you for posting the pictures and info... nice close-ups! I dreamed up several versions already... the first being a wedding quilt. Sigh!


Here's a few of the blog posts that I've saved from Fresh Figs (Joanna):
Sugar Pumpkins (pattern for sale) -
http://figtreequilts.typepad.c...u--to-be-thinki.html

Her pretty table mat pattern (pattern for sale)-
http://figtreequilts.typepad.c...om-a-little-jam.html

Postage Stamps (patterns for sale - on my Wish List)
http://figtreequilts.typepad.c.../postage-stamps.html

jessicasews,that Sugar Pumpkin patten is the same as the one free from the Scrap Lab project link above! Oh happy Day!! She used a different fabric of course,but pattern is the same far as i know.

The pumpkins are very similar! The little white pumpkin in the Scrap Lab photo is adorable... how many times have I bought the cute mini pumpkins for 'looks'?!

I bought 2 magazines - they didn't have the Scrap Sensations magazine, so I chose the Simple Quilts & Sewing for all the gift-y patterns.

Quilt Trends:
http://www.fabrictrends.com/issues/latestissue.shtml



Adding: the site froze up while I was adding info, so this is a short post.

Contents of Simple Quilts & Sewing

i broke down and bought "Quilt" yesterday..

Is that the latest Simple Quilt magazine? Not seen it around here at all! Have bought it in the past and loved it! What date is it please? Or the display until date? om the front cover near the bottom? Thanks so much!
Got my atest Am Patchowrk and quilting mag Fri,it is great! Tow new mags due out from them. Will go look it up and post in a bit..like speciale ditions. looked real nice..

Kim, I had that magazine in my hand at least 3 times! That's the one that has a cute Bike Satchel pattern! It's hard to choose. The ladies at the Joann's didn't mind me sitting and deciding which magazine to buy - we talked about how the magazines are constantly on sale (10%)...


Bonnie, this issue of Simple Quilts & Sewing is on display until Jan. 7, 2013 (Winter). The Fall Symphony table runner pattern by Jane Spolar went right to my heart (combining Fall colors with a touch of purple).
...I briefly looked through the Spring/Summer issue and liked several patterns (Moving Mosaics and Ripple Effects) - the magazine is $9.99. Adding: Bonnie, the article in the American Patchwork & Quilting: Betsy Chutchian - Mini Quilts is really pretty!


Thank goodness I've come across back issues of various quilt magazines (thrift shops and quilt shops) at clearance prices!

Bonnie,
I'm heading back over to the site to look - thank you!

Kim,
THAAANK you! *.*Every little bit helps*.*



Robert Kaufman Fabrics has an ad in one of the magazines - fabric line: Coventry Court
The pattern that is featured with is Adalynn's Garden:
http://www.robertkaufman.com/q...rns/adalynns_garden/
(there's a list of free patterns on their site)

After starting the table-runner, I decided that I wasn't happy with the beige tonal fabric... after mixing it in with a few other fabrics, I've got a blended background and I'm ready to applique.

It's going to be a nice Fall day for sewing! Of course, that's after the sun comes up...

jessica, I like your choices for background and it's going to be beautiful! I love anything Fall. The colors of trees changing are always my favorites. Can't wait to see it when the applique` is done!
