I've bought the off-white background fabric, and have begun cutting the scrappy pieces. If not, I'll need to make some modifications. I'm hoping that 92" will be large enough. The design measures 92" square, and will require 484 units. Hard to believe, however, that I would be the first to come up with this one. I imagine that this Drunkard's Path design layout has a name, but I've been unable to locate it. I used Electric Quilt 5 to design the bed-sized Drunkard's Path below: When I'd started the quilt, I'd intended to hand-quilt it, but by the time I was actually able to work on it again, it had spent so long unfinished that I used the quickest method, tying, to finish it. The partially completed quilt spent a several years in a box before I was able to get organized and again turn my attention to quilting. It was one of those projects that got derailed by a major move-actually three moves in a year and nine months. I finished it back in 2005, although I'd started it several years before. The blue Drunkard's Path shown above, is hand-pieced and tied.
A few of the many variations with their names are shown here. Drunkard's Path not only has curved lines, it's very versatile with many possible design layouts.

I sold them to raise money for our most recent trip to Hungary. My dish cloths have been popular items especially. I have also done many Cross Stitch projects, Raggedy Ann's, a few Bears, and recently, I am Crocheting. There I taught classes on making Raggedy Ann Dolls, Teddy Bears, and a Storm at Sea Wall Hanging. I did a couple of Patchwork Mission Trips to Hungary with International Messengers in 20.
To see an enlargement, click on the picture. Almost all of them were hand quilted of periods of months. I have done more than fifty quilts through the years - log cabins, stairsteps, nine patches, pin wheels, a White on White, a Round the World,, etc (not counting those Quillows) - many of these have gone to friends and my children as gifts, and some of those I kept have worn out in use.īelow are some of my more recent quilts which I have done.
