    Default I was given a large stash of quilting fabric

    And I decided to make at least one quilt to donate. Here's my progress:

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]611103[/ATTACH]

    Everything except the very light blue in the upper left, the paisley, and the grayish lavender came from the stash my co-worker gave me. The light blue was from my stash, and the paisley and lavender were cut from two $1 thrift store shirts.

    Here's the pattern.

    That is going to be very pretty and love how you are putting the fabrics together to be so complimentary to each other.

    When I pulled all the purple fabric out of the bags I thought "Hmmm this may be too much purple." But as it goes together I actually really like it.
