    Sometimes Tuesday Morning has the older Fons and Porter templates but that is truly a hit and miss shopping experience. Good luck!!

    Is there a reason you specifically want the fons and porter templates.

    Wesing - The F&P templates aren’t really a do or die thing - I’m interested in thrones with curves - wish I could think of the names right now but I’m at a hotel in Charleston after attending the AQS Charleston quilt show and completely fried. Going back home tomorrow. I’ll check some back issues for specific ones but I do remember they weren’t repeats of other templates (which imlace lots and lots of). Thanks to all - I’ll write back when I’m more specific.

    Well - I found the name of the F&P templates I’ve tried to find. I am looking at an issue I’d their magazine from May/June 2017 and there is a pattern - the templates are Twisted Pinwheel and Twisted Triangle. I’m hoping that someone might have or know someone who has these templates. I like the blocks they make - there is a pattern in the magazine to trace but I’m not very good at making sure these particular ones would turn out correct. Thanks to all who took he time to answer. It is most appreciated

    I can see why you would prefer the template. so far I've only found pics of the Twisted Pinwheel. must be an old one. Good luck!!

    The Quilting Company says they have discontinued production of the F&P templates so the only ones available would be what stores still have.

    Thank you so much for the info about the F&P templates. It’s really sad that the company made a decision to discontinue the templates, yet there are videos and magazines (not even older ones) still available. Sometimes corporate decisions don’t make much sense. I’ll give up my search. I appreciate all the help I’ve received. Y’all are just super!!!!!
