Try the Simply Amazing Spiral Quilts book by RaNae Merrill. She is an excellent teacher. I actually participated in her test group and she also has a new book coming out about Mandala quilts - and my quilt is one of the ones in the book (probably under the "don't do it this way" section!

Thanks!

How about the older but always classic Log Cabin With a Twist by Barbara T. Kaempfer from AQS? Nice photos. Lots of copyable patterns for PPcing.

I found one by typing in twisted log cabin pattern.
Type in - www.ehow.com
It looks like the one Kitsie posted. I just looked this up, but there are a couple other sites to check out.

I printed that out and could not get it go go. I'm no good at PP so I ended up scrapping it. I did order the book from the softexpression site and looking forward to getting I 'm getting the 10 degree ruler and the exrension for it and I already have the 9 degree one and I'm going ot make a diffrent kind of a quilt. THe book is called Quilts Qithout corners. THese are round quilts so that will be very interesting. Now to keep busy until the book gets here.
