Weyburn Revisited

Look What Bonnie Did


























She made this quilt for her brother Jerry using my Weyburn block.
She made the name Jerry to go on the back using my Connaught alphabet.
I think she did an excellent job of both.

I designed the block for the quilters in Weyburn Saskatchewan when I did a trunk show there.

It's made from three pieced strips.














 You might want to try making a Weyburn quilt of your own.

This is the Snail's Trail block the way it is usually seen. It's a very different block and an interesting one. But there is only so much you can do with it.
