Find the one - or two - or three fabrics that just call out to you & buy as much as your budget will allow. If that isn't enough to make the size quilt you want, add in some JoAnn fabric!
Whatever you decide, enjoy your trip to Hershey & have a grand time at the LQS, fondling & gazing, & smelling :wink: the fabrics & other goodies they have there!
:D :D :D :D :D
Agreed!!! No one said a quilt had to be ALL from LQS. You can find lots of less expensive fabrics that can go with a "must have" fabric from LQS. Enjoy yourself!!!
