I would like to do a quick and easy quilt and thought of Turning Twenty. I looked at pictures here and on Webshots and found a number of Turning Twenty quilts I liked. The pieces are big, but the key is fabric and color selection, which is where I don't do well. I know that there are several ways to do this: pick a 20 piece fat quarter bundle from a collection, pick a theme, focus fabric, or color scheme and go from there. I looked on line for 20 piece bundles. There were a few, but I didn't like the color. Most of the packs were of 5, 6, or 9 pieces, which if I bought several would mean a lot of repeats. Another idea is to buy 5 -1 yard pieces of a collection or scheme, which would give 20 fat quarters, but still a number of repeats. For those who have done this pattern, what do you think of it. how do you pick fabric, what do you think of fewer fabrics, more repeats?
