I usually start out with a pattern, kit picture, (or an idea) and decide to change the size, shape, or fabric combination and end up redrawing the whole pattern. :roll:

Or, don't have quite enough fabric to do the original and redraft it to fit the amount of fabric I have. That sometimes takes almost as much time as making the quilt!!!

Hmmmm, just thinking how many quilts I could have made!!! :lol:

I am cheking from time to time what color of fabric and how much can go into some quilt...(minimun of 3 different colors as main colors....)then decide about how big this quilt is going to be and for whom....(baby, lap or full).....Then I go to look for design and sometimes if I don't have enough fabric ..I insert something around or in between blocks.... :D

I start off with a focus color and go from there. A lot of scrap paper and math. :D Oh, and I ALWAYS over buy. I'm always afraid my math was wrong. :?
