Update: thanks to your responses I found a copy. I was holding off on the one I found for $27.00 last night as the seller had 3 copies but this morning when a friend referred me to the site-she had just 2 copies left so I decided to get it. then a friend found me a copy for $19.00 right after I bought the first one. That's ok shipping is free on the one I ordered and I finally have this pattern Thinking of making the appliques with wool
(I don't feel so bad about missing the one for $19.00 as it added $6.00 in shipping)
Hi everyone, I thought I would put this out there in case anyone seeing this post, might have this paperback book with patterns for the quilt and no longer want it or would sell it??
Across the Wide Missouri by Edie Mcginnis and Jan Patek
This came out in 2010 and I always regretted not buying it back then Now it is difficult to find.
Twelve stories and blocks honor the courageous women who packed up their lives to head West. The featured quilt by Edie McGinnis and Jan Patek The Star's 2010 Block of the Month project is offered in two different colorways. Additional quick and easy projects also honor the pioneer spirit.
Thank you
I can't help you with this, and I asked my wife who has many quilt books, but I hope that someone will be able to get a copy in your hands,

DeleteI am happy that you were able to find the book and now have your own copy. Happy endings are always good.
ReplyDeleteHappy endings are good for sure.
DeleteAs usual, I'm late visiting. I am no good with quilts. I have no desire to make one, but I have a friend who makes lots, so I will ask her if she has the Missouri one. I wrote all the info down and will let you know after I call her.
