Third Weekend in October

This was the first pattern that I ever bought. I had been quilting for about a year and was feeling intimidated by anything that didn’t follow the average block-sashing-border pattern. But I loved the quilt, bought the pattern anyway and put it away for a long time. Until one day I finally realized that it looked worse than it was, the quilt is made up of nine patch blocks, and it is all done with squares, half-square triangles and a little paper piecing.

Design by Ruth Powers, machine pieced and machine quilted by Beatrice Rieske

  1. I would love to find a copy of this pattern! Do you have any available? Or can you point me to someone who might?

    1. Sorry but I can’t help you with this. I only sell patterns of my own designs. I bought the pattern for this quilt about 25 years ago and don’t know who would still carry it. Good luck!
