So, the question is How many fabrics? I have the Eleanor Burns and she says 3 darks, 3 lights for any size TripAroundTheWorld quilt, but I want a smaller strip not a 2.5 as she recommends in her patterns. So, how many fabrics do YOU think I could use?
Thanks.
I made a TATW with all different prints predominently green with small accents of white, yellow and pink, I think I had about 15 different prints and I started with the lighter in the center and went out with the other prints to dark green at the border. I made it when I first started quilting about 10 years ago and I still don't have it quilted yet. That is one of t he ones I have to be done next year when I move to my new studio.
