We'd call this block Criss Cross Applesauce, but we don't think that's its real name. Play Jinny's game and find out for sure.
We reported this about one year ago today and have discovered it is still happening on another site. Designs by Caryl Bryer Fallert-Gentry, Elsie Campbell, Jane Sasssaman and more have been stolen. Click here for more information.
QUILTERS UNITE! PLEASE SHARE and help. Stolen! My Dad's Lone Star design and used on "hippie blanket" without license or permission. I could use help finding out who Amelia Quilt is - and how to contact them - and legal services. The second "blanket" popped up as "often purchased with" so I did the screen grab of it too - anyone recognize the original designer/maker? There may be others.
UPDATE: Information coming in that these are Phishing bait to get your information - they are not selling them - or if they do, the person never receives the product. Buyer beware.
Do you love Paula Nadelstern's fabric? This is your chance to own as Paula says, "More is More!"

Customers outside the United States, please contact Paula at Needlestar@aol.com

Libby's quilt is all about raising strong daughters, just like her own. She used raw-edge appliqué and texture to build up the layers of the quilt.

Title of Quilt: Sarre Windmill
Quilter's Name: Carolyn Johnson
Location: Birchington, Kent, United Kingdom
My partner Marie and I initially exchanged several emails, and subsequently moved on to Messenger to communicate. We exchanged information on our families and about our life style and surroundings. Contact has been sporadic as we both live fairly busy lives and are involved in family businesses. We agreed to base our quilts on inspiration from the surroundings in which we live. I had originally intended to do a modern quilt based on windmills, but after having a mental block, decided a pictorial quilt was the answer. Sarre Windmill is a Grade 2 listed Smock Mill that was built in 1820, and was still producing Flour up until fairly recently. It is situated at the top of the hill behind where I live, in Sarre, Kent UK. My quilt is a picture of Sarre Windmill and surrounding buildings. I have used a bit of artistic license as three of the sails of the windmill have been partially removed, recently, for repair. The quilt is made from plain, hand dyed and batik/watercolour cotton fabric. I have also used felt, tulle and a tiny bit of clear adhesive plastic to create the windows. It is machine pieced, hand appliqued, machine appliqued, hand embroidered, machine embroidered. It has been finished with some simple quilting, through the layers made up of cotton fabric and poly/cotton batting. I hope Marie will like it.
Title of Quilt: Fall in New England
Quilter's Name: Marie Joerger
Location: Hollis, New Hampshire, USA
IMQE partnered Carolyn Johnson (CreativeClarissa) U.K. with me, Marie Joerger (MarieJoerger) New Hampshire, USA as Team #114. I was very excited to be a part of this exchange. Carolyn and I begin our adventure by emailing and messaging details about our life’s back and forth finding that we have a great deal in common. We both have busy lives and work in family businesses. It was fun spending time getting to know each other. I have enjoyed this exchange a great deal and was lucky to be partnered with such a lovely person as Carolyn. In deciding what to base our art quilts on, we looked to our own area of this world we live in and planned to create something to capture and share a bit of each of ‘our’ worlds. For my part I decided to recreate a large quilt I had made into a mini. My original design for the quilt is called 'Modern Lost in the Big Woods'. As I believe that Fall is the most beautiful time in my part of the USA I chose to center on that. My quilt is machine pieced using a technique I call ‘Fracture ½ Square Triangles’ to add a pop of golden red to the piece. I used Fall colors throughout the quilt with just the most vibrant orange and reds to make the tree explode as trees do during Fall in New England. I added multi-sized crystals to suggest the flow of wind. It is my hope that Carolyn will feel a little of New England when she receives her new quilt!
