Star and ESQ, I love your fabric! There's something about those beautiful flowers. They should turn out great!

Thanks everyone! When I first cut em and set them up, I thought it was too much blue, but I think it'll look cute in the end, can't wait to get them on my design wall and play with placement!! :) Funny how this can turn a fabric I dislike into something I like!! :)

Cheers!
Rachel

I got my fabric, yipee.
Here it is, it has a 17 1/2 inch repeat in the length of the fabric and a 12 inch repeat across the width of the fabric, I have 4 yards.
If you could give me some idea on where to cut I would really appreciate it.
Do I cut at 17.5 inches 6 times?
Thank you so much for doing this for us, sorry about the dumb questions but I don't want to muck this up.

You are not so much cutting a measurement but design at this point. See where the measuring tape is right by the light blue circle. Pick something lime that to follow and cut the print in the same place. ( if you have 12 or more repeats, every other one)

I'm taking a class at John Campbell Folk School in two weeks. You guys are really helping me understand what we'll be doing. I'm new here and your chat is wonderful!

OK ladies ~ Here's what I have come up with. These are just previews - going to start sewing now. I am ending up with 10 blocks per strip and I have 10 strips. 10 X10 = 100 blocks OH MY!!!
