I think that either the pieced triangles or zipper quilt would be the most popular as patterns.<br />I agree with the comments above, I tend to me more "inspireI by" a pattern, but as I start to plan bigger quilts its great to know yardages for different sizes.<br /><br />Sarahfoodmathquiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06681120171564102892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-61153720010505634902009-07-29T09:30:41.127-04:002009-07-29T09:30:41.127-04:00My vote is in and Im anxious to see the results to...My vote is in and Im anxious to see the results too!

I've worked without them too. But what is particularly pleasing for me is the evolutionary process your quilts take, thats what makes them 'you'. <br /><br />If there was a pattern in the offing, I'd want to have a go at the zip quilt, poss in choc brown & turquiose or reds :o) Happpy sewing!Trudihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105739423187659152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-21637430499307750912009-07-29T07:17:58.323-04:002009-07-29T07:17:58.323-04:00I am not hung up on patterns.
