    Seven Sisters- it's beautiful, but it intimidates me way to much to try it.

    I vote for the Double Wedding Ring also. I think it is so beautiful. I would also love to learn to do a Mariner's Compass quilt, I think it is such a beautiful pattern.

    The second one is more like the one I've always seen. I'd never seen the first one -

    I have to say the Double Wedding Ring too, as soon as I read the question that is what popped into my mind...........it is such a traditional and beautiful quilt! I would also like to make Grandmothers Fan, I love it too!!

    Well, since I've only done the 9 patch, I'm pretty open for anything but I would really like to make a Log Cabin quilt. I have all the instructions but it looks like such an awesome undertaking and so time consuming that I just haven't started it yet.

    I don't think I anywhere near ready for the Double Wedding Ring. I love the look of the 2nd Seven Sisters. I'd love to make that one.

    Melissa, I would like to make a biscuit quilt too. I would like one for DD's bed. CJ, have you made one and if so was it difficult?

    That is a beautiful example of the Mariner's Compass. I love the colors that they used.

    The cathedral windows is actually not a quilt but a coverlet. Here is what it would look like.

    Here is a "puff" quilt and no I have never done it nor do I really want to do it. It just doesn't appeal to me.
