This is what I was thinking also. I'd hate to have to cut into the material. Would loose it's affect.

Aquarius fabric!!

And, not only that, but he said, "I don't know how much yardage goes into a big quilt, but I got you 8 yards. Hope that's enough."

So... what would you make with it??
With eight yards you can do a lot. Dress your bed (quilt, pillows, wall hanging to match, etc.) Or, you can do a one patch with awesome results. It's lovely fabric.
