    This one looks nice. I googled the name in images and the pattern can have different layouts. It's something to add to my list.

    Thanks.

    No, haven't made a decision yet. The only thing I have decided is to use the flowers in a fussy cut pattern and I am in the process of cutting them. I have company many days and I have been visiting a relative at the hospital on other days so it is slow going.

    I have also looked at the Squares within Squares pattern from Quilter's Cache which looks similar to the Sweet and Simple pattern.

    I know what you mean about being drawn to the same colors. In this case it's a coincidence that the colors are the same as my avatar colors. I have used purple/violet/pink as quilt colors exactly twice and both quilts were gifts. The recipients both love purple. I have a lot of blues in my stash but consider red my favorite color yet I don't use it often in a quilt and have very little in my stash, although I do want to try a red/white/black pattern someday.

    I have had this fabric for a LONG time and now I'm trying to use up the stash. Not sure I have any coordinating colors for it and may need a trip to the LQS.

    Thanks for your interest.

    No idea where I bought it. The selvedge says:
    Victoria's Scatter Garden, Debbie Beaves of the Violet Patch, for RJR Fabrics, 2004.

    Here are a few links to Debbie Beaves website and The Violet Patch website and RJR Fabrics.

    The first link is to Debbie Beaves patterns.

    I like the 'Violetta Table Round' pattern from The Violet Patch.

    Beautiful fabric. I have some cat fabric with the motifs about the size of yours. Like the Ohio Star idea
