measuring 3.5 x 6.5? My sister (first time quilter) wanted to make Bonnie Hunt's (quiltville.com) Bricks and Stepping Stones, http://www.quiltville.com/bricksandstones.shtml she cut the fabric to the above mentioned size and decided that she really did not have a desire to quilt. I was gifted with the fabric.
I would like to make a quilt for her with the fabric. Any ideas? I am not a fan of bricks and stones.
Thanks,
JulieM

Go with what you have. You can make new blocks, 4 patch, cut and make log cabins, 9 patch, unequal 4 & 9 patch, courthouse steps, pull out a quilt book and randomly pick something, sew colors together and then cut them into new blocks. It's too bad we don't live close as I love to make new blocks. We could spend the day and try to fit in some sewing. :lol: :lol: I sent you a PM

Coin or Chinese coin quilts work up beautifully...
