    LOL Ninnie

    It's OK I can wait I am a very patient person I did say I would like it so I can snuggle up in it whilst I watch "White Christmas" on TV. Now I didn't say which Christmas LOL :wink:

    Now a question for you Ninnie - the calico you used was it a light, medium or a heavy weight cotton. I would love to make it one of these days when I have enough scraps.

    Tisha :P

    Which calico do you mean? the background is made up of high grade muslin,if that is what you are looking at, It is what gives it the old fashioned look!

    Our Muslin over here is very sheer I think maybe what you call Muslin we refer to as Calico - we are going to need a dictionary between us LOL. So I am assuming that you are using calico. If you can nudge me in the right direction as to where you got it maybe I can take a look.
    I adore the effect it gives your quilt, as you said a sort of vintage look.

    Tisha :D

    Just check on line at most fabric shops. I get mine from a friend who owns a curtain shop, she orders it by the bold. I think it's called Kona cotton, It is very soft to hand quilt and holds stitches beautifully!

    ty - I'll browse the net & see what results I get. I'm off to The Festival of Quilts here in the UK on the 20th so I can compare prices there too. Thanks again.

    Each 16" block has 18 triangles, you should have 9 triangles in this quilt! :wink:
