I am trying to make a quilt for my brother for Christmas .
It's going to be 42 x 56. I have cut some of the material
but it didn't work out the way I thought it would. I wanted to put a 15 x15 panel in the middle.I couldn't
get the other pieces to fit evenly around the panel and look right as the material is cat material and is real busy. So now I have decided to make a pillow out of the panel to go with the quilt instead. and use blocks to do the quilt. It
will work out and look nice, but I want to learn to do something beside block quilts but I guess I will keep trying and since this is a gift I want it to look nice so the next one I'll try again to do a different pattern and use a pattern instead of trying to make up my own. This has sure made me apprenciate all the talent on this board
and the beautiful quilts you all make
