I had this lovely floral material that I bought when I started quilting. Unfortunately, at that time I thought that fat quarters was like gold. The more the better! :roll: When I realized that I need much more, I had all this beautiful fat quarters and I don't know what to do with them. So I decided to make a sampler quilt. I started teaching a friend to quilt and I thought that sampler blocks would be the best way. So she stuck to a color theme, but I used my beautiful florals. I think you will understand if I say how terrible it felt to see this lovely materials getting smaller and smaller until there was nothing left. It brake my heart to cut them, but when I gave my mom the quilt and she started to cry, I know that it was worth it.
