    This material caught my eye @ Walmart (I know, I know) it WAS clearance tho, so I thought I could come up with something fun to do.
    Well its been 2 days and I cannot figure out how to use it.
    any ideas?? I have 2 yrds.

    How about using them as a snowball block with alternating nine patches.

    Tricky to fussy-cut them but I think they'd be terrific for a wonky-style log cabin - coordinating or contrasting color bars around each would really make them pop.

    I saw this in a quilt It might have been on here or in a magazine they used it as a center panel and fussy cut some for around the panel. sorry that is so vague.

    Don't apologize for shopping at Walmart for fabric. I do it anytime I'm in a Walmart that has fabric. Just got some fabric for a quilt for my 11 year old grandson from WM and he is crazy about it.

    I've seen this fabric, too, and like it. Just have no idea how I would use it, so left it on the shelf.

    I bought that very same picture and made a throw quilt and my sister liked it so I gave it to her. It was my very first quilt. I will try to post a picture. Patricia
