    Default I need help locating the instructions for a very easy child's quilt.

    The pattern features three different pieces of fabric (I need the length for each piece) each folded in 4th with the folds placed in lower left hand corner. The cut edges are then cut 9 inches along the sides and across the top. This creates a rectangular center, borders and cornerstones. Then the pieces are mixed up, creating 3 different quilt tops. I cannot remember the length of each fabric needed but I do remember that there needs to be more inches if a directional fabric design is used. I hope you can help me with the requirements because this makes an ideal children's quilt (no batting if made of flannel) for our cool So.Cal nights.

    That's it! Thank-you so much. I knew I could count on this board. I sure beats tearing my messy sewing room apart searching for it.

    I am continually amazed that no matter how you describe something on this board, someone will be able to come up with a web link or something that is just what you want!!

    I've made several of these (hey, the pattern makes 3 at a time!) & it's a GREAT little quilt! Another good one is Streak of Sunshine from Quiltville.
