You've got a good lookin bunch of fabrics there, but I think
there's way more than enough for two quilts, ha. I am now
quilting on a black and white, with a touch of red. I collected
for quite some time before I felt I had what I wanted. When I got through with this top, I had soooo much left I made a nine
patch with black & white and the set-together blocks were a
red. And...I still have fabric left. Am going to make a jacket
for one of my daughters..and will still probably have some left.
I like to choose over a period of time. I learned my lesson
when I was asked to make queen-sized quilts for 3 grandaughters (sisters). I went to 4 nice shops to even get
enough variety. After they were pieced, I began to see more
that came on the market that were much more to my liking.
Live and learn.
