Help needed. Has anyone by chance got a copy of the 1992 book Tessellations  by Jackie Robinson ( I think) The cover has a sort of black and white quilt on it.

I did have it, lent to someone in a quilt group and yes, you guessed right - never saw it again.  There's a cute pattern in there of tessellated dogs and I'd like to make it again for LGD.

If any of you lovely people have it I'd be really grateful for a photocopy of the pattern etc.

Fank yooo!

I will post it back, pronto, @Iminei . You said hang on to it for a bit while I was planning my sewing room but I think it's as planned as it's going to be now.

Would it exist in a library in the UK ? Do you still have libraries in the UK?  The more I think about this the more I want to make it! Daft isn't it with so many patterns out there, I want the one I don't have. :thinking:

There are a few copies for sale on abebooks.com, most of them are in US for 4 -7 dollars. Don't know what the postage costs would be like.

Actually, I've just spotted that there are some in the UK too. Try World of Books.
