Three Free Patterns, Kaffe Table Runner, Wheel Within a Wheel Progress, Me in the Garden from Canadian Needle Nana

The deer have been around and gnawed down a couple of hosta plants; here they eat the same one and leave all the rest.

The pattern is not available now but it is no published in a book called Stunning 3-D Quilts Simplified by The Quilters Clinic in Fife Lake Michigan.

Happy quilting!
