    My bestest girlfriend came home for Christmas and brought thse to me...all the way from Tasmania, Australia!!!!! They are beautiful colors and all the same pattern, ( tiny little flowers which you can't see in the picture). They are so pretty and mean so much to me, I don't know if I can ever cut them!!

    Those are beautiful. I too would have trouble cutting them. You'll have to decide on something really special to make for yourself.

    How fun. What a nice friend to bring you such pretty fabrics. It will be hard to cut into but just imagine how beautiful of a quilt you can make with them!!!

    Those are gorgeous! I don't know if I could ever use them to make anything -- but they will make good "petting" fabric!
