    Your fabric is beautiful. What would I do? I guess I'd do what you've been doing...just petting the fabric. haha Seriously, what you've done so far looks pretty cool.

    Thanks! So far I haven't actually cut the fabric. I just took a photo of it and made digital examples of what the blocks would look like if I decide to use that pattern.

    Ooooh ... I just had the idea that a kaleidoscope dresden plate could be awesome ... but I doubt I have enough horizontal repeats for that.

    How about warm wishes. I am planning on using it for a large scale print my DD picked out.

    Okay, I finally got up the nerve to cut the fabric. Yikes! Here are a few of the blocks I've made so far. I should've turned off the camera flash. The fabric looks a little "washed out" in this picture, but you can see the patterns. (I haven't ironed them yet, so pardon the wrinkles.)

    This is going to be a gorgeous quilt. I can just picture it on a bed. Have fun with it. I love the 4-patch idea you are using. Also, congratulations that you got the courage to cut it.

    How about a BQ3? The pictures on the pattern do NOT do it justice but it is cool made up, especially if you have a large print fabric that you want to showcase!

    Kaleidescope comes to mind. Kaye Wood has a tutorial with Bethany (last name escapes me) on the pattern.
