    There is a thread in Classifieds right now that has quilting magazines for $1.50 each. One is about dotted quilts.

    This one is very cute. I like the borders that break up the busy-ness of all the dots, yet let you use lots of them!

    I used small, medium and large polka dots and did a bow tie baby size quilt. It was very cute!! I used solid colors in the main block to give it a good scrappy look and the added the polka dots to the corners in traditional bow tie fashion.

    Enjoy using the polka dots....they are a lot of fun!!
