I work with donated fabric and sometimes add something from my stash. I often have to buy for the backing. The fabric I am working with sort of dictates the pattern I use. If I have a lot of different material I will do something like the "wickely Easy" pattern. If I have 3 or 4 that are coordinated I will do a rail Fence. If I have 3 or 4 fabrics that are very contempary, I do a large rail fence. If I have some prints and solids that go together I make a 9 or sampler. It really depends on what I have to work with.
