    Default Mini quilts patterns

    I'm looking for the website with lots of mini quilt patterns.
    As far as I recall most of the minis were made using civil war or similar
    type fabrics. Not modern. Some were group of 4-5 quilts. Can you help?
    I've looked everywhere and but can't find it. I'm sure those who
    like this type of quilt will know right away.

    I have seen mini quilts and made a few but you want your prints to be proportional to the size of the blocks. There use to be a magazine exclusively about the making of mini quilts.

    Never mind. Found it. Of course as soon as I finished posting. LOL
    It was Lori Smith that I was looking for.

    i used to subscribe to the magazine maniacquilter2 refers to & have all my old issues. i make my own patterns. i like lori smith also, but i tend to use what i have on hand which is a mix of civil war, 1800's or regular small scale florals & blenders. i get a lot of scraps given to me so, i just dig thru and don't worry about sticking to a fabric theme. i just use whatever ..just like earlier quilters did. i have found some great blogs that focus on doing mini quilts by doing image search of mini quilts and going to site image originated from.
