100 Blocks Issue

I think it would be fantastic to ask the readers to submit their favorite 100 blocks and take the most interesting or most popular to make an issue.

great ball of fire

I need to know how big this quilt is. Here's the story: I give the mag to our local library for a gift thinking i would be to read it. Someone else decided that they would like to have it for their own so now I have a pattern but no info. Is there a nice person out there that can help. Thanks Jo

No. 129 pattern

Batik Scramble: this pattern would make a good one for an "I spy" quilt my grandson wants to make. It seems his favorite activity is 'sew with Grammy'. What a compliment.

Here is a Solution.

Room to hot, light increases heat, hard time seeing where I am sewing. A white sheet of paper under the acrylic sewing table but above bottom of sewing machine. See great, no need for another light.

Love the Site. Tried to leave a quilting tip but don't see it. Maybe I just haven't looked far enough!
