    Default Linnie's fabric for her quilt

    Ok Linnie, here is what I get to pick from for your quilt. Not sure which pile is best. Yep, those are scraps and small pieces, the tubs are full of scraps and that is only two of them, then that cupboard is full of my special Buggy Barn fabrics which I am leaning most towards for your quilt. Yep, those are mostly scraps but have some good chunks in there as well. Just thought I would let you decide from here. (LOL) If anyone wants to come over and help me get organized, that would be great. Yep this is last years mess I made making the 120 ufo projects.

    Marytoddliz and I have connected, will be communicating more soon. Ideas are buzzing around my head, waiting for one to sit still long enough to grab.

Anyway, hope I've chosen a good one.
    I hope a lot of you gals show your progress, it is so motivating!! I would show my pattern, but it is all in my head! I am designing Mindless quilt from a few other quilts I seen as motivation. I plan to post photos as I progress

    OOooOOoo I have heard about the underground railroad quilt codes! I hope you post photos as well, that is truly interesting and fascinating, I hope you share their meanings with us!!

    I love to see fabrics and progress. I am still trying to choose pattern and fabrics. My partner is a "Surprise me" so I am letting my imagination flow and trying to decide if I want to do something I like or go outside of the comfort zone and do something different.
    Any other here has a "surprise me"? what is the "creative" process for you?
    Can we talk about the "selecting pattern" flow that you all are going through?
    Just to help others (me) LOL!

    Didi and I just might have to make a playdate and meet halfway and exchange our quilts. That way if she doesn't like it , she can throw it back at me and I can go home and tell my moomy she doesn't play fair. LOL Will try to post pics of some designs I am looking at. My hotspot doesn't want to work for my computer and now battery for camera is dead. One more electronical screwup and I am heading to the lake for some R & R. You all have a great day and if ya don't see anything posted for a couple days don't worry. It's all work in progress.
