Quilt Patchwork Patterns - where do i find free quilt patterns and instructions?

where do i find free quilt patterns and instructions?

One of the most extensive sources of "free" patterns can be found at www.quilterscache.com. The patterns are for individual blocks, but they all show illustrations of the blocks used in multiples to make a quilt. Many of the fabric manufacturers (Moda, Hoffman of California, Robert Kaufman, Michael Miller, Benartex, Andover and RJR Fabrics) have websites where you can find free patterns, too. You can also search the internet using "free quilt patterns." There are thousands of sites. Beware -- it's habit forming (as is collecting fabric)!
Go into HGTV.com, and type in quilt patterns. You can also go to the library and check out the books. I belong to a quilting group and you can check out books in their library anytime. Other sites are quiltersrule.com, qultindex.org. Also you can buy a magazine at your local newsstand for less then $5. Glance thru it first. If you were in DE, I'd help you. Best of luck. It is a very rewarding and exciting project. I would rather do that then housework any day.
