So I am going to try a quilt for my bed. If I get tired of working on it or get discouraged, I'll just stop and find a smaller project for a while and put this one on hold.
    Here is a picture of my fabric. The pattern I have chosen is the one I was looking for last weekend. Green with the squares positioned on point. Here is a picture of my fabric. That was hard! I had my cart full of fabric trying to find the perfect selections. I hope it doesn't end up blah. I've seen such gorgeous colors on this board. But I like light colors and pastels. So I'll give this a try. Wish me luck. I'm going to start cutting tonight.

    Beautiful colors....good luck on your quilt. I still have the first quilt I made on my bed and love it just as much today as when I made it.

    You picked out some lovely fabrics. I agree that it is best to make a sample square first & be sure the size is coming out as you expected.
