This will be perfect for a quilt for the survivors of hurricane Harvey. Thank you for publishing.
There is something missing in the pattern, namely the cutting instructions when going to print the pattern.
Hi Bonnie, The cutting instructions are listed right after the fabric requirements. It lists how many 11″ squares needed to cut from each fabric. Hope this helps. If you still have questions, feel free to email me betsey.langford@americanquilter.com. Thanks, Betsey
Print friendly version doesn’t include a picture of the quilt.
Hi Laurie, When you use the green ‘print friendly’ icon at the bottom of an article to print, a image menu along the top lets you set whether to include images and at what size to print them. Enjoy! Thanks, Betsey
I made this quilt in about 4 days and it is beautiful. How could I send a photo of the finished project?
