    I recently won a package of 2" precut watercolor squares and don't know what to do with them. I need photos or ideas of how to incorporate these in a small quilt. I could combine them with more solid fabrics, I just don't know. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

    It depends on how many you have ... this could determine what other fabric you need (or don't need) to coordinate them.

    I love the watercolorquilts. You could go to the library and find some books on watercolor quilts. Or google them, lol!~

    Thanks so very much for your information. It has definitely given me some ideas. I wasn't aware that Quilt Fuse even existed.

    There is a site, www.whims.com that sells kits. She has some gorgeous patterns that will give you lots of ideas. The kits are a little pricey though.
