WOW these are ambitious quilts! How many different colors are there? How would you ever know how much fabric to buy? I have such a hard time picking fabrics, I would not know where to start. My goal is Grandma's Flower Garden or Cathedral Windows. Right now I am taking a table runner class, and I praise the Lord for Charm Packs! It is suppose to be scappy, but the Charm Packs make it soooo much easier. I have patterns for all the state flags, but I do not know where to begin to calculate enough fabric to put them all together to make a quilt in the red, white, and blues of civil war times. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all for your pictures, comments, and advise.
