    In my ds words "SWEET"! You got a deal! The Timeless Treasures is selling in LQS for $10.00+- a yd. Even the "cheaper" fabric runs 4 or 5 a yd. The bandanas, try the disappearing 4 patch that someone has posted would be awesome! I'm almost done with a bandana quilt, will post when I get it done. I made a nine patch with different colors cut it u and tossed it around. Your bandanas look unusual and very pretty.

    I've seen bandanas (sp?) used with other pastels in baby quilts - really cute.

    Just a thought for the bandanas, use them to make casserole carriers and give out for Christmas. Christmas gifts do not always have to be from Christmas fabrics. You could use them for summer table runners. The gingham is pretty mixed with solid colros of the same color as the gingham for quilt blocks, half square triangles. However, suggestion for the gingham if you do this I would hightly recommend putting a stablizer behind the gingham, as it does have a big tendancy to stretch and can be disappointing when the block is finished and ready to put together. Ask me how I know.

    Great deal. Great colors. Ideas for gingham, baby quilts, make strips l.5 to 2.5 inches wide and cut for skirt for sunbonnet sue, pinwheel using colors of squares, not white,baby bibs, sure there are lots more ideas.
