I took her class in the early 80's and she is by far the greatest quilt teacher. She simplified the process of cutting, sewing and putting together all of her quilts. She does many books with her daughters. Just Google her name and you will get tons of great information about her.

Smith from Canadian Living magazine. I've made many quilts from the pattern and the booklet has seen better days. It's dogeared and missing the back cover. It was published before the days of internet and email so I don't have that information but I do have a mailing addressand phone number for Jane Smith. Whether or not she still resides there, I do not know. It is Jane C. Smith, South Berwick, Maine 03908, phone # 207-676-2209 Good luck Nancy, Orleans, Ontario, Canada Posted on 10/06/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse 8 hour trip around the world quilt By Toni (Guest Post) I made this quilt several years ago in an overnight quilt class. I even taught it to others in an overnight class of my own. Now that my daughter wants to make the same type quilt as a graduation gift for her brother, I can only find the first page of instructions. At least it has the amounts of fabric needed, but I don't remember all of the steps to piece the quilt correctly. If you received any instructions in response to your e-mail, I would be interested in them also. I have been on the web, and think that I can wing it, but would sure like the instructions just to be sure. Please respond to me at recorder01 @ hotmail.com (remove spaces). Thank you.

I found the instructions at www.bernina.com These instructions use a serger to make the quilt. I also found a "Quilt In A Day" book at Joanne's fabric store.
