There's a pattern called " can't cut it" that could be perfect

Several years ago I used fossil ferns to make a Dresden Plate wall hanging. Used small doilies for the center circle. It's one of my favorites!

I made the Candy Squares quilt with Fossil Fern. It is still one of my favorites. It is a single Irish chain quilt. Simple and beautiful.

I just googled fat quarter quilt images, and here's the link. One of my favorites would be the Swoon quilt that is on this page. Large size blocks with the chance to do many different color combinations on the same quilt!

I have fabric I purchased 3 years ago with other fabric to coordinate. Am thinking a beginner's version of a bargello.

I just finished a wall quilt with 15 fossil Fern fat quarters in the pattern "tic tac quilt". It is in the book Cozy Modern Quilts by Kim Schaefer. You could double or triple the size. I did straight line quilting on it with a walking foot. It is in brights so it makes me happy.
