Goodhearted007. I have cs&cc Mag May/June 1987 and July/August 1987. E-mail me at: rns_snider@Alphacomm.net and I will send you copies of what you want. I'm also looking for cs&cc Sept/Oct 1988 Nesting Hens and my daughter is looking for Monkey patterns and celtic designs. Thanks gmom2-6boys

I love all of these quilts...you all do amazing quilting!!! Each one is lovely. I have to say the Dahlia quilt is just stunning...love those colors! And tuppermom...that musical quilt is so special and beautiful...and Nanajayne...the blue and brown quilt is spectacular! I think my favorite thus far is the one I made for hubby in batiks, posted last year. I'm hopeful there will be another favorite in the works soon. Thank you all for sharing...your passion for quilting is inspirational for the (somewhat) newer kids on the (quilting) block! V.

Quiltville calls it a Pioneer Braid and Quilters Cache just calls it Braid. Technically, IMO, the pattern with the little square isn't a braid, unless it could be determined a variation. When I'd french braid the girls' hair, there wasn't a square at the center nor for a regular braid...and believe me, I've done it thousands of times. Am I being too nit-picky today? Probably. @:) Enjoy the process!! I burned out a few years ago with tablerunners and I'm still recovering....but it was fun! SharonG/FL

Use whatever you want, do whatever you want. The only stipulation is that there is a minimum of 9 blocks and each block must represent in some way a time of your life. Marti in Mexico
