I am going to do two quilts at the same time! I am going to begin my second quilt while I am frozen on my first because the first one's fabric is so expensive. I counted it out, and it actually costs me about 10 per yard. So, I will be buying it here and there while I do a different quilt. I need some good ideas for a nice pattern for my second one. Any ideas????? :?: :roll:

There's a trillion different patterns you could choose for the second one, just be careful that the fabric for the first quilt doesn't get discontinued or impossible to find before you are done. I'd hate to see you get three quarters of the way done, then not be able to fine enough to finish it.

Oh goodness!! :D There are so many patterns that I just love, I don't know how I would be able to recommend just one. I am hopeless, as I LOVE them all!! Good Luck choosing your pattern.

How about a double Irish chain. It's one of my favorites.

My favorite pattern is Ohio Star. If I can't find anything
else I always come back to it.
