Download this Mark’s mini iron and crystal wand keeper pattern. This quilt is featured in the March/April 2009 issue of Mark Lipinski's Quilter's Home magazine. See that issue for complete instructions.
I'd love to be able to make this, but it seems that you have to have a copy of the March/April magazine to get the directions. I just recently subscribed to Quilter's Home and haven't received any issues yet nor have I been able to find it at the newstands or at my quilt stores. Any help or suggestions?
I didn't have any trouble with the pdf file. But, you have to use 8.5"X 14" paper to print this. I am going to use this as a demo at my local quilting bee. Add the pin cushion idea was a good one.
I didn't have any problems downloading the pattern. But I think I will add a Pin cushion (weight) so the keeper will hang on the table and be handy all the time.
Just a thought, but this pattern could be enlarged and made in to the perfect travel case for a curling iron or hot brush. Never thought of making one before, but the one I have is getting a little worn from travel and this is the perfect way to replace it. These would make nice gifts too - you'd just need to know whether the "giftee" uses a curling iron or hot brush or some sort and what their design style or colors are. Happy quilting.
