    I have been collecting dot fabric and not its time to use it. Does anyone have any ideas for a quilt. I could make one for a child, adult or ?. Thank you, LeeLee

    I would think any pattern would be nice as it would definitely be all dots. Maybe like the "Take 5" or do a disappearing nine-patch. Wow that would be something. Look thru your books and pictuce the dots. I will also be on the look out myself. I am sitting with my mom while she has surgery so I will be looking at a lot of quilt books. I will let you know.

    can you post a pic of the fabrics - that will help us to think of patterns you might use. I LOVE, LOVE dots!

    The little child animal quilts or flower quilts are cute with dots.

    Somebody on here showed a work in progress picture of a quilt using dots material - a scrappy quilt and I just looked and did not bookmark it - but it was so neat and colorful. Maybe somebody else remembers it. Lots of pieces to each block.

    Here is one that I saw at a Quilt Show this weekend. It looks like a disappearing 9 patch.

    My DD love polka dots. I made her a polka dot quilt. Just squares bordered with a bright solid. She loves it.
