    Default How do you search quilters cache?

    http://www.quilterscache.com/

    I must be blind but I can't find anywhere to type in a search

    I'm looking for house blocks
    and also paper pieced house blocks

    thanks! Sharyn

    I'd be interested to know, too. There's an alphabetical list, but if "house" isn't the first word in the block name, it wouldn't be under H.

    I just spend time looking...familiarizing myself with whatever is there. Mostly by size, but when I wanted a tree, I typed in tree and got everything with the name tree on it. But mostly, I go by size.

    I always do quilterscache/quiltblocksgalore because it has an alphabetized list.

    There isn't a search function per se on the site. You can look at everything starting with "H" (house isn't there) or go through all the patterns page by page or look for size. Sometimes google is the way to go on sites like this. If you search for "house quilt block quilterscache" you will see several listings, including the school house block - http://www.quilterscache.com/S/SchoolhouseBlock.html - also row houses, farm house, etc. Just search for "house quilt block" and you'll find many more.

    If you go to the Where do you want to go toward the bottom of the page then click and open that. At the very bottom it has a "Lost site" page and it will navigate you to find various items you're looking for. I tend not to go there much or else I may be on "Quilter's Cache most of the day. Hope that helps!

    In the quilt blocks galore I found some houses; look on pg 4, pg 24 and pg 30. Hope one of these were what you were looking for.

    I found the easiest way to search Quilter's Cache is to use Google. Include the words "quilter's cache" and whatever you're looking for in your search terms. Of course, as someone else said, if "house" isn't part of the title, it probably won't come up.

    Too bad Marcia doesn't use tags and have a search function on the site, it would make using her site so much easier.

    There is a 'schoolhouse' http://www.quilterscache.com/S/SchoolhouseBlock.html
    and a church http://www.quilterscache.com/C/ChurchBlock.html
    That's all I found.
