Just need to buy the fusible stuff and a 1/4 of material and I will be back in action. However this is a great lesson learned and in the future I will make a sample block out of leftover material so I have a better understanding of what is going to happen prior to cutting up all my pretty material. This will be my third quilt project since beginning. The first two I didnt use a layout pattern. The second one is my avantar and is made up of Dresdan squares and Card Trick which I have learned at quilting classes.
