Hello,
I got a fat quarter bundle last year. Some of the fat quarters have large prints and I am looking for suggestions for a fat quarter quilt that has some bigger pieces within the design to show off the prints.
I would love some suggestions. I have the pattern Sew Little Time from Best Fat Quarter Quilts 2012, and the biggest piece is 5x 9 1/2. I tried one of the fat quarters and it is looking a little chopped up.
Thanks.

I love Heather Petersons books Livin' Large and Living Large 2. Both are well written and easy to follow. I love that she tells you which direction to press in order to get your seams to nest and match perfectly. That is something that I never take the time to figure out, and when I use her patterns, I don't have to.

I have seen "Easy Does It" made in large and small Kaffee Fassett reds....gorgeous! MSQC has a pattern that uses layer cakes. I have also seen books with patterns showcasing large scale prints that are both fussy cut snd cut into flying geese units. Spectacular!
