If you do have some I would like to have it, I can take out one row of stitching and make it the right size for a twin if not no problem. It is like a large throw the way it is. Let me know and how much you have and what you want for it.

My pansy fabric has a yellow background and I don't think the pansies are as large. Close but no cigar. However, I'll post a pic of it if you want. There is about 2 yds. of it. Maybe you could put one row of this all the way around????

Thanks for checking for me. I think I will leave it as is, Now I know better!

I took my fun and done quilt into walmart where I bought the fabric to show them and the clerk in fabrics said she had bought the last of the pansey fabric. She is bringing it in tomorrow for me!!! Yes it does pay to get to know the people who work in fabrics!

I Love pansys. Great job! Is there a specific ratio of outer square to inner square on FUN & Done quilts? What is the difference in size ofeach so that you have enough fabric for folding and sewing the seams together. Thanks!

I just know I needed about 6 1/2 yards backing for the twin size.
