I have fallen in love with a couple of quilts shown on this board made with the FABRIC FLING pattern. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to find the pattern. Does anyone, out there, happen to know where I might find it.........Thanks, Kaye

Hi All, some of you have PM'd me - here's my condensed version.
I don't know where you can find the pattern, but after studying the quilt, I think I can explain the pattern to you.
cut 1 1/2" strips of all your fabrics.
Next sew in random order 8 strips end to end and cut out as many 9" x 9" pieces as you can from the strip. You will need an even number of blocks and will use 2 per finished block.
Next. Cut the 9" sq. blocks in half on the diagonal.
Look at the quilt on the board and place the 4 pieces so they look like the quilt block. Make as many you need to the size quilt you want to have.
I'd make one strip set and cut 4 and see if it's a size you can work with. If not adjust strips accordingly. SO - Whatever height your strip set comes out to, then cut you blocks that size.
Then make the sashing and borders.
This looks like a very easy quilt that can be made fairly quickly.
