I love Asian fabrics-made a paper pieced wall hanging and a quilted jacket for my Mom. I am saving asian fabrics now for a full sized quilt

I do have some that I bought because I couldn't
resist.
Just Sue's comment about different weights making it hard to use smaller pieces was really helpful. I am so new to quilting that I had not even thought that far. Thanks Sue.

I don't have any but scraps at the moment. Asian fabric is one of my loves. I made Japanese Lanterns (wallhanging) with the fabric I had.

I have some black fabric with the Asian language written all over it, about 3-4 yds. If anyone is interested in it, they can have at it!

I love the Asian fabrics. They are beautiful. I made a OBW out of one. They are really good for that. I have some I bought in Japan and I am having a hard time cutting them. I am looking for just the right thing for them.

Have lots. Have done two (2) wallhangings. One is already hanging and the other is on the waiting list to be quilted. Have lots more, no plans right now but maybe soon. Am trying to use up what is already purchased.

I don't have any in my stash, but when I see them I think what a great one block wonder they would make.

A few weeks ago, I made my daughter a purse.

The purse has different fabrics on each side (so, it is reversible). That is why you see "4" different purses.
