Pictures of Newfoundland Quilts

After looking at a quilt that my mother-in-law made using Newfoundland tartan we noticed that the pattern in the tartan did not match up properly.  I decided to look online to see how other people who used Newfoundland tartan put the quilts together.  Here are some pictures that I found.  I liked the idea of putting a solid block in the center of each piece of tartan, so this is what I have decided to do as well. 






Pictures of Quilts

These are some of the quilts that I liked.  Although some of these quilts have more completed designs then I feel that I am capable of making as a beginning quilter, I hope that one day I will be able to create these types of quilts. I chose pictures of these quilts because I liked the patterns and colours that they incorporated.
