I want to make a full-size quilt and after a half-day trip to Olympia I couldn't find a good pattern. I found some good books but am not ready to pay $30 for one. I'd like to find some quilting directions online, patterns you can buy and download. I hate templates, I like strip methods or that trick to make half-square triangles or whatnot. If anyone has some tips, it would be much appreciated! see the mundane life of a housewife.

Omigosh Nancy! That's a list! I am a member in FreePatterns.com and have gotten some nice patterns from there for quilts, my first two projects were from there.
