    My mother-in-law gave me this fat quarter set today. I'm wondering what kind of pattern to use it with? Any ideas?

    Very pretty! They look like some oriental fabric I have. Maybe there are patterns designed for that type of fabric??

    if you want to add to it, yellow brick road comes to mind, or turning twenty which uses larges pieces.

    beautiful fabrics, you are lucky to have a great MIL
