    I will be around any time that you are doing it if you need more help than what has been shown as well.

    I wouldn't do the second and the last one is a bit busy, the other ones are great.

    Depending on the size of quilt that you would like, and the size of repeat, you are looking to have multiples of 6 of the repeats,

    if it has a 24" repeat (2 feet) for 6 repeats you need 12 feet equals 4 yards, so if you need more you are looking to buy the fabric in multiples of that, so the next break would be 8 yards, of course with the different sizes of the repeats and what you are doing will depend on how much you will actually need.

    Hi April - I think #1 has too much plain background and the teddies are two small and far spaced. Not sure about the cowboy boots but the last two would be fabulous! If i had to pick one, I'd go for the tigers. :-D
