Jacqueline de Jonge's colourful quilt

[Lois B.]

I found the pattern available online just by googling her name. I am busy until early Sept. If at that time it looks like I could fit it in before 9/30 I will order it.

Lynn -

That is definitely a design opportunity! I'll be interested to see if you can find a way to work your mistake into the design. I can't think of anything so would probably redo it, but you are probably much more creative than I am!

[Andree B.]

No can't see mistake unless you wanted the colours organised differently. It's fabulous.

Lois why not ask her for permission to draft it yourself?

That's what I intend to do....

Just thinking, why do we need permission to draft a block that has been made by many, many people before? We doodled this star on papers in elementary school. Peggy Martin has it on Craftsy as we speak. I don't intend, or want, to get into a whole discussion about copyright because that's about beating a dead horse, just saying.

Because I was testing the water and just want to draw it out. Thanks Sue

[Andree B.]

I meant the "drafting myself" part... You are right, it is a Mariner's compas.... sort of...

I did a quick draw of it in EQ last month and colored it using the default palette. It's not quite to scale but is close. I drew it as a miniature of 20". I don't plan on making the quilt as my schedule is too full right now but just wanted to see if I could draft it. I saw the pattern at a quilt show for $30. Was tempted to buy it but changed my mind.

[Annis C.]

To all the comments re pattern. It is availableon her website. Also, there was an announcement this week that the use of the DVD on this site has been extended for another month. I think tbat meanz thru October.

Where is it announced that the DVD has been extended 30 days? I am not finding the notice. Donna

[Janet K.]

It was in one of the email newsletters. Thank goodness, takes some of the pressure off!

[Janet K.]

It was the August 19 newsletter which said it was extended to October 30.

[Janet K.]

I wish they would change it in the web site.

[Janet K.]

Me too, I am surprised they haven't changed it. I have just finished the spikes, so may need that extra time.

[Janet K.]

Mine is finished except for the binding. I hope to make another one while the video is still up. I am getting ready for company and a quilt show so I will not be able to start until the end of Sept.

For the drawing do we need to post a new picture or do the one we have already posted count?
