Doesn't have to be a kit to be overwhelming. I have some material I bought a few years ago that I just LOVE. I didn't have a clue how to go about making a quilt out of it so I decided to make some 'practice' quilts just to get the hang of it. I made 11 for kids, grand kids and great grand kids and I STILL can't bring myself to cut into that special fabric!! :-(

I wonder if I will ever do anything with the material other than admire it. *SIGH*
