JoJo,
Love your quilt and it's a good thing I do because that is the same layout I am using for mine! I don't have much done yet. Things just keep getting in the way of my sewing time. I was wondering though.... do you know the name of this layout/block? I had just been playing around on EQ6 when I decided on it but I know I've seen it before somewhere else.Lesley

Kalynn,
Hey, I cannot take credit for it because I emailed Terrie (Crocus999) to ask if it was okay that I used her layout. So you and I both love her design and was inspired by it. She told me it is called a Depression block and is from the 30s.
Have fun sewing!

I am ready to sandwich and quilt but, I couldn't resist sending a picture now! I saw this pattern in 1997 in an issue of BH&G American Patchwork and Quilting. Jill Reber is the designer. The quilt measures 63"X63". I get bored with some repetitive quilt piecing------but, I loved putting this quilt together! Not knowing what pattern I would use I didn't know how many hst's to exchange. I needed to make quite a bit more the scrappy way and I enjoyed the whole process. I didn't keep the papers but, I did write the state or country on the pieces to have some documentation. Thank you for letting me be a part. Hugs to you all. Judith

Crocus999, Thanks for posting that info on the Depression block. I had to laugh though because this quilt has been anything but depressing! (don't worry, I really do "get" the name, I'm just teasing!)
Judith, your quilt is beautiful, too.

I have an overdue question. Where did the name "sisterhood of the traveling triangles" come from? I have to admit the name is what got my attention and first made we want to become a part of this wonderful experience. Nice work to whoever came up with our title.Comment

Love your beautiful quilt, Judith. Another terrific pattern to think about in the future!
Happy quilting,

Margo, thanks for the very quick reply to my question. Debbie, thanks for the catchy name. I have never in the past wanted to be a part of an exchange and without this name I probably would not have paid attention and think of what I would have missed!!Comment

It was thanks to Debbie for giving us the name
AND
thanks to PuritanPatcher for calling us all 'Sottt's' - a bunch of habitual drunkards :lol:Comment

Good one Rosemary!! Who's admitting to habitual drunkards???Comment

I think that the general concensus was that we were drunk on hst's :lol:

Soooo, I'm Shirley Forster and I'm an official Habitual "HST" Drunkard"...because I just finished my 4th 24" LeMoyne Star made from approximately 2/3rds of your precious HSTs, and it was totally intoxicating!! I'm glad I waited to work on my quilt because it was fun placing the name, face, personality, humor, fabulous ideas, colors, textures, and personal life stories attached to each HST. I was smiling from ear to ear the past 11 days when I was at my design board and sewing machine. All of your HST papers are taped onto 4 separate 24" sheets so I have a written permanent record of each beautiful HST! The 4 sheets will hang behind my wall quilt when it's finished! Now, comes more fun...the SSs and Rickys! Oh I just love being an HST addict!!! :lol:
Hugs,
ShirleyComment
