    Default Dragonfly Dreams

    Has anyone made DRAGONFLY DREAMS. It is a pattern from FONS & PORTER November/December 2019 magazine. I have the pattern (6 part series), I have all the fabrics, my problem is. In the instructions, 5 matched sets of: 1 square 5 1/4 (B) etc. I have all of my fabrics payed out to cut, I do not know what fabrics go with each letter.

    I have not made the quilt, however they identify the fabrics by : light blue swirl : cut xyz for A, from Navy Wing Print: Cut xyz for B etc…..
    That is how they identify the fabrics, I hope you are able to figure it out its a lovely pattern!

    I cross off their fabric choice names and pencil in my fabric choice color or names.

    yes, I dislike designers who do things that way. they want you to use their fabrics and no others. just make labels for your fabrics and go from there. Good luck!

    I rarely use the designer's choices of fabric so I graph out the quilt with my own colors and even attach a swatch of my fabric choices so I don't get confused. Good luck making the changes.
