Gator Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 I'm looking for the book called Magical Hexagons. I just saw a demo on Simply Quilts but when I googled the book and author it said that it was out of print. Amazon has a couple but they want 51.00 for it.
ffq-lar Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 Ebay has two for $45 each. Maybe someone here will part with their copy for a reasonable price. I also saw that show--what an easy way to do tumbling blosks.
BethDurand Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 I didn\'t see the show, and really don\'t know if this will help. However, I\'ve got patterns from Marci L. Baker on making strip pieced Tumbling blocks, grandmothers flower garden and seven sisters quilts. All have no "Y" seams. They are published by Alicia\'s Attic in Fort Collins, CO. Good luck, Beth
shadows4 Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 I love the technic that Marci Baker uses. It was first "invented" by Sara Nephew who sold the business to Marci. Sara came to speak at our guild and she & her hubby stayed for 3 days at our house. We went garage saling, took them to eat "Kansas City Barbeque", and really enjoyed them. The exciting thing was that she saw me quilting a charity quilt and loved the quilting. She asked if I quilted for others and the next day asked if I would quilt one for her that was going to be in her next book. Of COURSE I SAID YES!!!!! Her book comes out next May. She said I could tell people about it, but asked me to wait a couple of months before I show the pictures of it. After she got it back she said that she hoped I\'d be willing to accept other quilts for quilting, and asked if she could show it to her small group!! I hope that doesn\'t sound braggy. I\'m just really excited about it!!!
BethDurand Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 Hurray for you Jeanne! Post pics when you can! Beth
PamelaA Posted November 10, 2007 Report Posted November 10, 2007 Jeanne, That is not being braggy. If it were me, everyone would know as I would be up on the roof shouting that I was published. Don\'t forget to add the publishing part to your resume. Congrats. Pamela
