    Default patterns for Fat Quarters

    I was recently gifted a bag of fabric, much of it is fat quarters, some match, others are random. What suggestions does this group have for using fat quarters?

    Look up "Lucky Stars" by Atkinson on the search bar on here and a bunch of pictures will pop up. I believe it has a star in the middle of the blocks but there are no points to worry about cutting off.

    Unless they are directional prints/stripes that require matching, I found Ribbon Box worked very well with fat quarters, I only had to use yardage for a couple of the ribbons (and the background).

    I know there are a few quilt books out there that has several patterns that are just for fat quarters. You may also look up on Pinterest for fat quarter patterns.
