St. Patrick's Day - Crafts

I found this cute pattern at this address -

http://moonlightquilts.com/2008/03/12/free-quilt-pattern-happy-st-patricks-surprise/

I don't know if I would have chosen the orange shade for the border lines but might have chosen a pretty yellow instead.

I found this site, along with several other St. Pat Day quilts, collected in a list from this site -

I have been extremely busy - sorry !!!!

I am afraid I've been neglecting you. It is "Germ Season" at work with lots of teachers and their children getting sick. This  means long hours for me. Add to that a couple of bouts of germs at my house with assorted people. We even managed to get a couple of days vacation thrown in and my time has been non-existent. I hope to get things back on track but there is aways Spring Break on the horizon when I can have time to myself (I hope !!!). I have gotten in several great looking books but have not had a chance to read them. I will share them with you as soon as I can.

Crafts - Great Quilt Pattern

This is a quilt pattern I found in a block of the month site. I think this design is beautiful. See below for the Jan. block which I think would be great as a pillow or blown up to be a great Valentine quilt all alone.



See at this address -

Valentine Day Craft
