There is a picture of my Quilt of Valor on the bottom of that page!

Oh, Wow! That QOV is wonderful. Thanks for the link to the pattern. Is it really an easy one to make? Looks hard.

Arkansas Crossroads......Very easy, looks very complicated.
As far as picking out colors, I used a jelly roll and added black.
I need to quilt mine now.

Good luck with whatever you pick to do.

Can't get the patterns to print off this site .It comes up as under copy right and won't let me print .Has anyone eles had a problem with this?

I just tried to print this pattern, and had no problem at all. You might go directly to "quilterscache.com" and search for the pattern, then print it.

The twister pattern is fun and comes in 3 sizes. I found it to be very easy and fun!

This site is such a treasure of historic patterns. There are Civil War blocks, Pioneer, etc and the history with each. My collection of Bible quilt blocks has just grown tremendously. Thanks! Ann in TN

Yes, I agree that the D9P is greeat for that. Mix up the fabrics, and it can look VERY complicated, but it is sooo simple!!
