Gauge is not important: the pattern is made to adapt to any size of hooks and yarns. My friend Karen R. and her beautiful works at crochet inspired me to write the model of my old blanket. And this pattern is dedicated to her. Pescara (Italy), May 28, 2015 «This coverlet is simple to make, colorful, cheerful. Very versatile, it can be used on the bed or on the couch, on the chairs in the garden or in the car and it will always be a bright and colorful spot that will grab everybody’s eyes. It is a blanket of the kind Mile-A-Minute: is formed by four panels joined together during the last round. Each panel is worked around the starting chain of shells (here in color Powder Pink) for 10 rounds and has its own sequence of colors; the colors change at each round and the sequence is different from panel to panel. It will allow you to use even leftovers yarn. The explanation will take you step by step in the execution. There are 15 colors to choose from. I’ve mainly used yarn leftovers in the rounds with arches, which requires few yards/meters each. For all the rounds with dc(s) I’ve used from 50g to 150g for each color (from 1.76oz to 5.29oz). Sorry, I don’t remember the exact yardage because I made this blanket more than 15 years ago. You can start with 50g/1.76oz for each color, and see which of them you will need to add.» The 23 pages of this PDF include: 30 pictures as photo-tutorials, a very accurate pattern section, the list of the original color-palette used, two suggested sewings methods to join the panels. Skill Level: Easy Materials needed for a similar look and size of the old blanket: any Yarn for Hook G/6 (4.00mm) would be good. I used a thin Merino Wool for baby but worked double, some (50% PC-50%Wool) leftovers and a crochet hook G/6: approx. 1350 grams /47.61oz of mixed colors (most leftovers), approx. 200 grams /7.05oz of the color: Powder Pink. Hook G/6 (4.00mm), Tapestry needle and Scissors. Weight of the original Blanket: 1550grams /54.67oz Length of each Chain of Shells: 175cm /68in Panel size: 31cm×200cm /12in×78in Blanket size: 132cm×208cm /51in×81in Border wide: 4cm /137/64in Colorful Mile-a-Minute©2015 I declare that this pattern is the result of my creative work and it belongs to me.

What good is a Patchwork Pie if you can't get a slice that you want???? Thanks to a comment/ request, here are some tips about making the Mile-A-Minute quilt in the version I do: 1. Start with a strip and sew scraps down it's length. Press open. 2. Cut the strip + scraps into pieces, then randomly sew those down the length of another strip. Do not keep them in any order. Rotate them around. Press, etc. 3. Sew those pieces down the length of another strip. For those who would rather see a picture: Note that the pieces are sewn back on in a random fashion Eventually you have crazy patch rectangles/squares. They will tend to have straight lines because you used a lot of strips. Decide how large you want the block to be. I like a size that is the same as a square ruler (6", 8", etc.). You need enough pieces sewn together so the patchwork is larger than that block size. This looks suspiciously like a log cabin type block Use the ruler to cut out a block BUT do not line it up along all those straight seams! You need this to be larger-than-block size so you can lay the ruler down at an angle. Disclaimer: my favorite rulers are actually OmniGrids! Now just cut it out with the rotary cutter. Don't worry about the bias edges too much, just handle them with a bit of care. This looks much more interesting! This sort of quilt does well with sashing, and that makes everything straight grained again. Hey...this quilt has legs just like a ironing board.... So that's the Mile-A-Minute. It's like making your own fabric, so you could cut any shape you want. It could even be a piece in another quilt block pattern! Remember to turn the cut sections all different ways when you sew them to the next strip, and tilt the ruler as much as possible when you cut out the block. And I bet you already know what to do with the parts that are cut off! NOTE (1/ 26/ 11): Making your own fabric out of scraps can be done many ways, and has been done for many years. As I mentioned at the beginning, this is just my version of something that was shown to me by a friend who learned it from someone else. It's very similar to Eleanor Burns' way of making Log Cabins and a variety of art and Crazy Quilt techniques. Although I've been using and showing this technique for several years, I just recently heard that it has been published as a pattern, with the same name, by Carol Coski of Quilt Away (http://www.quiltaway.com/) You may want to look into it...I have not seen the pattern, only the cover on her website when I "googled" her name.

Running a 6 minute mile is recognized as a true test of a recreational runner. It is fast, but not elite fast. And, if given the will and dedication, many can achieve it. The mile is a beautiful distance. Four perfect laps run at near-top speed. It is short and satisfying, and racing the mile is coming back into style just like tie-dye shirts and high-waisted pants.
