This quilt is entirely, front and back, Kansas Troubles http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/8684.page

Thank you SO much!! I have charm packs of Bound to the Prairie l and ll. I am missing fabrics from much older lines-like Stitches on the Oregon Trail l and ll, Meadow Waltz, Seasons, Prairie Christmas, Scrapbook Garden, Strawberry Jam, Seeds of Time, Pressed Memories, Prairie Moon, and Kansas/Oregon Quilt Connection. They are much harder to find. I did find some at a quilt shop in Australia, but I was not willing to pay the shipping!

Your quilt is gorgeous!! I love anything made with KTQ fabrics. The colors are so rich and yummy.

Babeegirl-where in KS do you live? We were stationed at Ft. Leavenworth two times, for a total of 5 years-I love the midwest!

Your charm quilts are wonderful. I just love charm packs!!

I live in Wichita :) I do have 3 yards and 23 inches of this Strawberry Jam fabric if anyone wants to trade for KT fat quarters.

I have made 3 quilts from charms. One from the pinks charms, one from back to the prairie, and one from crystals.
Wish I knew how to post pictures but my HP insists on Outlook and I have Incredimail.
I love the Crystals collection, it is 44 different marbles in jewel tones.
It can be found at Fabric Depot online.
