Even quilters can make mistakes! We strive to see that the project instructions in all issues of Modern Patchwork and Quilting Arts Magazine are clear and accurate, but occasionally an error creeps by us. We apologize for any problems this may have caused.
If you find any errors in our magazines, please let us know and we will post corrections here. Corrections for all other publications can be found here.

Shell Game Quilt, Designed by Jean Nolte
On page 91 of Fons & Porter Presents Modern Patchwork, Fall 2016, the enlargement percentage of the Shell Game template is incorrect. It should be 125%.
We apologize for this error. A downloadable template already printed at the proper size is available for you to download here.
Please note: Since Shell Game is a one-patch quilt, you will still be able to use the original template printed in the magazine to create a quilt, but it will be smaller than the pictured quilt and require less fabric than indicated in the materials list.
Zipper Pouch, Designed by Christina McKinney
Page 67 of Make it! Patchwork, Summer 2016:
The ground walnut shells included in the materials list are not necessary for the construction of the Zipper Pouch, however, they are needed to make the Pinwheel Pincushion Pair by Amy Ellis (page 74) as noted on that project’s materials list.
2015
Echoes Quilt, Designed by Leanne Chahley
Pages 78-81
The digital pattern for the quilt “Echoes” by Leanne Chahley that appeared in QuiltCon Magazine 2015 is missing a few steps (please note, the print version in the magazine is correct). A new, corrected version can be downloaded here.
We apologize for this error.
Scales Quilt, Designed by Natalie Barnes
Page 99 of Modern Patchwork, Spring 2015:
The instructions for Step 3: Row 2 are incorrect. The correct instructions are as follows:
Remove triangle 7 and triangle 9 from the design wall. You will need to trim these triangles to make the correct angle for the pink triangle to fit in. To do this, Make a mark 6 3/4” from the left side of Piece 7. Connect the mark with the upper right point of the outside trim line. Cut on this line. Reverse the process to prepare Piece 9. Sew the pink triangle between these two trimmed triangles using 1/4” seams.
