    this is one of those quilts where everything is near perfection,...your quilting, the pattern, the fabric is to die for....what a treasure.
    I agree, you sure do have an eye for quilting. How much time could I save if I had a gift like that? It takes me forever to decide all the components and then I have to work at not changing my mind. Do you have a system, lol? C

    :?:

    Could someone be so kind as to tell me in which Fons and Porter book/mag this pattern appeared. I have been waiting 2 years for inspiration for a fabric and I just found it. TIA

    Tremendous quilt!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm with KathyPgh...somebody please tell us which issue of fons and porters love of quilting this is in.
    I have a couple years worth, but don't want to go hunting if I don't even have it. I think my reds and greens in the trellis would make a great christmas quilt for next year...please? love ya forever if you do, lol! C

    quiltncrazy - Go to the first message and then go to pons and porter and put in the title of the quilt, I found the magazine, I think it was in 1998 but then they didnt have listed, the magazine for sale. Good luck

    I believe I found it. I searched the Amazon site and found a Fons and Porter "Quilts for all Seasons" book that had "Around the Twist" in its table of contents. Bought a used copy for $4 something. Will let you know if this is the correct book when I receive it. This pattern will definitely be my "January" project. Lovely!
