    I bought 10 fat quarters with bluebonnets on them...all different. I would like to make a quilt with these and some blue on blue sashing. I need an idea for a pieced pattern...can you help me out?

    I would do a turning 20 but turn 9, it would make a square quilt of 50" and you would still have an extra fat quarter to use for the extra something you might need.

    Someone posted this:

    earlier and I think it would work great for a bunch of same/yet different fabrics with the sashings to tie it together.

    I love that pattern. I may use it for lots of "kid prints" that I have.
    It would look great with your bluebonnet fabrics.

    The turning 20 but 9 will work just great. I am in the process of one right now - using bluebonnet fabric.
