"design your own square" quilt
I'm helping my sister put together a quilt for her hospital in which
every department is making their own square. Are there any resouces available for how to put the quilt together? I'd really like to see some before I start planning borders between and around the squares. Thanks, Lisa |

There are a few books on setting 'random/orphan' blocks into a quilt.
One is Smashing Sets by Margaret Miller; another is Setting Solutions by Sharyn Craig. I have the MM book, but I understand the other one is great too. Perhaps your library could get hold of copies for you? .. In article , Lisa writes I'm helping my sister put together a quilt for her hospital in which every department is making their own square.

Hello Lisa,
Go to your county or city library and check out a few basic quilt making books. Good authors, with titles: Carol Doak (Your First Quilt Book); Fons and Porter (Complete Guide); McClun (Quilts! Quilts! Quilts!) Compiled texts: Sunset Patchwork; Singer Patchwork and Quilting. HTH.
